Program Description

Our extended degree in forensic science with criminology covers subjects such as biology and physiology, forensic geoscience, and chemistry for life science. You'll also study modules in criminology, including policing, violence in society and the psychology of terrorism. Hands-on study includes sessions held in the lab and at mock crime scenes.

The course begins with a foundation year to get you ready for degree-level learning. You'll then study the same modules offered on our three-year course.
