Under Graduate DivisionCriminology is the social science that studies crime. It is the study of not only crime in general, but also the effect of crime on society, the underlying factors, and the offenders involved. The focus is to determine what motivates people to commit crimes or act in criminal ways. School of Social Work is the only institution under Mangalore University that has offered Criminology as an optional subject for BA undergraduates since 1978, with the mission of providing quality education to raise social justice awareness. The students are taught the fundamental principles of crime, as well as social problems and their reparations. They also study Forensic Science, Scientific Investigation, Court Functions, Criminal Psychology, Cyber Investigation, Penology, Victimology, Forensic Medicine, Police Administration, Security, and Vigilance, among other subjects. Through laboratory experiments, students gain practical expertise in the relevant fields. To facilitate experiential learning, students are taken on field trips to significant penal, criminological, and forensic locations such as a police station, correctional institution, Reserve Battalion, Dog Squad, Forensic Lab, INS Hansa, Bomb Disposal Squad, Coastal Security Unit, and Cyber Police Station. Students gain academic knowledge in order to live and serve in a socially responsible manner. They also learn to face society with courage and develop into responsible citizens. Students use their criminology skills not only to help themselves, but also to help others in similar situations.

Besides, regular classes for the BA students, the faculty impart basic computer literacy, web designing, accounting package, graphic designing and basic animation by offering short term and diploma courses. From 2012-2013 to 2015-2016, a few MSW students received after-class computer literacy instruction. During the academic year 2015-2016, B.Voc students benefitted as well. Students from other universities, professionals, and housewives, in addition to college students, have enrolled in a few classes. The Department of Computer Applications was closed due to a variety of factors, including financial constraints due to a lack of University grants, faculty workload issues because this subject was not a grant-in-aid subject, and fewer students enrolling in the subject. From the academic year 2015-2016, admissions to this subject were closed, and the last batch of students who studied Computer Applications was from the 2014-2017 BA batch.
