In case this may prove useful:
In most Spanish-speaking jurisdictions the study of criminal law ("derecho penal") is divided into two parts: la Parte General deals with the theory of crime ("Teoría del Delito"), while la parte Especial deals with crimes per se, as they are defined (and punished!) in the criminal code ("Los delitos y sus penas"). If this is indeed the case in Colombia, "Criminal Law" would not be an appropriate translation here, because that is "derecho penal", i.e., the umbrella term for these two areas of study.

: as the name of a course? I hardly think so

It's probably a course on what is known as the "Special part" of Criminal Law, i.e., a study of the actual crimes and misdemeanors set forth in the Criminal Code. But since we don't know the exact course content, I have provided the standard translation.

Charles Davis
: Why on earth not? It's certainly a topic on which books and papers have been written.

Yes, indeed. It's a synonym of "criminal offense" and as I indicated to Allegro, the course probably deals with the "Parte Especial" of criminal law

Penology; Criminology
Declined
Since it is not Criminal Law (according to Asker), or Sociology of Crime, then the only other college course I have heard of in a long career translating college transcripts is Penology (or perhaps Criminology).
(After all, this not a college set up by inmates of a prison, it is presumably a legitimate educational institution.)

Two definitions from Wikipedia:
(1) Penology (from the Latin poena, "punishment" and the suffix -logy, "study of") is a section of criminology that deals with the philosophy and practice[citation needed] of various societies in their attempts to repress criminal activities, and satisfy public opinion via an appropriate treatment regime for persons convicted of criminal offenses.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines penology as "the study of the punishment of crime and prison management", and in this sense it equivalent with corrections.
---
(2) Criminology (from Latin crīmen, "accusation"; and Greek -λογία, -logia) is the scientific study of the nature, extent, causes, and control of criminal behavior in both the individual and in society. Criminology is an interdisciplinary field in the behavioral sciences, drawing especially upon the research of sociologists (particularly in the sociology of deviance), psychologists and psychiatrists, social anthropologists as well as on writings in law.
