Summary

Denise Maia Carter is a Lecturer in the School of Criminology, Sociology and Policing at the University of Hull.

My main interests are in the fields of Cyber Terrorism, Cybercrime, digital life, Social Media and Cyberculture. I have a strong research background in internet safety, having worked on the EU InSafe and the EU SimSafety Projects, identifying and advising on the safeguarding of children and young people.

My most recent work has examined online radicalisation, extremism and terrorism. I convene modules on Terrorism and cybersecurity, The criminal justice system, Popular Culture, Cyberculture, and the Dangers and Delights of Online Life at undergraduate level as well as contributing to other modules across the Masters and PhD programmes.
