Dr Pamela Ugwudike 

Associate Professor in Criminology, Sociology, Social Policy and Criminology Director of Research

Dr Pamela Ugwudike is Associate Professor in Criminology within Sociology, Social Policy and Criminology at the University of Southampton.

I joined the University of Southampton as Associate Professor in Criminology in 2017. Prior to joining Southampton, I was at Swansea University where I held several academic posts over a period of ten years. First, I was a Research Officer, then a Lecturer in Criminology, and subsequently a Senior Lecturer in Criminology, in the College of Law and Criminology. I led the Swansea Service Evaluation Team (SSET) which was one of the College’s research teams from 2013-2017. SSET was an interdisciplinary team of researchers involved in research on intersections of theory, research and criminal justice practice. My role as the Director of SSET involved leading the team’s research projects. I also supervised SSET’s Research Assistants and the DTC/ESRC students working on the team’s projects as part of their PhD research.

I am a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, UK and a Turing Fellow at The Alan Turing Institute. I sit on the Howard League for Penal Reform’s Research Advisory Group, the British Society of Criminology’s Executive Committee; the European Journal of Probation’s Advisory Board, and the International Advisory Board of the Youth Voice Journal. I am also an alumna of the Welsh Crucible for Future Research Leaders and a reviewer for several international peer-reviewed journals including: Criminology; Criminal Justice and Criminology; and Criminal Justice and Behaviour.
