Why study forensic science?
Forensic scientists apply scientific analysis to criminal and civil investigations, producing evidence that’s admissible in a court of law.
It’s a fascinating and rigorous scientific discipline that will build your knowledge of biology and chemistry, as well as your advanced problem-solving, data interpretation and communication skills.
Covering crime scenes, laboratory and courtroom work, forensic science offers a springboard into rewarding careers in the justice system and beyond.
