What is Criminology?
"Criminology" is derived from the Latin crimen, which means accusation, and the transliterated Greek logia, which has come to denote "the study of." Therefore, the term literally means "the study of crime." Criminology is a branch of sociology and has, in effect, been studied in one way or another for thousands of years. Despite its long history, though, it has only been in recent years that criminology has been recognized as a scientific discipline in its own right.
Criminologists look at a broad range of topics related to crime. They are dedicated to studying not only the causes of crime but the social impact as well.
In essence, criminologists look at every conceivable aspect of deviant behaviour. It includes the impacts of crime on individual victims and their families, society at large, and even criminals themselves. 
Some of the specific areas that criminology covers include:

• Frequency of crimes
• Location of crimes
• Causes of crimes
• Types of crimes
• Social and individual consequences of crimes
• Social reactions to crime
• Individual reactions to crime
• Governmental reactions to crime
