This degree links forensic theory with practice, spanning scene examination through to molecular biology. Students gain focused training in toxicology, chemistry and forensic methods. Teaching is delivered by practitioners and guest speakers who work in areas such as DNA profiling, crime scene work and toxicology.
Practical training includes simulated crime scenes and live-fire sessions, alongside laboratory and fieldwork experience. Learning happens in modern lecture halls and well-equipped laboratories where students use current instruments. The course holds CSFS accreditation, which reflects its focus on forensic science content.
The course is delivered at the Talbot Campus, where students can add an optional placement year to the standard three years of study. Practical laboratory sessions give students hands-on time with analytical instruments. Learning is delivered in lecture and practical settings.
