Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Forensic Investigation

Forensic investigators are key players in investigating and solving crime and they often provide the evidence that ensures offenders are brought to justice.

Students will develop practical skills using a range of mock crime scenes, laboratories, policing and court facilities, supported by the expert teaching team who have worked as practitioners or researchers within forensics and other related fields.

The students say that this course is both engaging and exciting, and the extensive experience of the teaching team is invaluable. Current forensic professionals confirm that this course is accurate, innovative and relevant to a range of careers.

This course provides an excellent grounding for any career that involves the collection, analysis and interpretation of information or evidence, as these skills are taught in core modules and transferable to many careers. The graduate attributes that are routinely required by employers are embedded into the Forensic Investigation curriculum and therefore, graduates are normally able to evidence these skills, preparing them for a range of careers. This is evidenced by ex-students who have secured positions in forensic organisations, the UN, police forces, prisons, medical laboratories, schools and universities.
