Forensic and Analytical Science

Recognised connections to give you an extra edge when you graduate. Read More Ever watched a crime documentary and found yourself glued to the screen during crime scene investigations? Or perhaps you zone in on the lab investigations, including spot tests for blood stains, and the methods used for determining alcohol and drugs in the blood?

A four-year undergraduate Master’s course with a placement year in research, our Forensic and Analytical Science MSci degree gives you an opportunity to potentially explore these areas of this fascinating subject, while putting theory to the test in the real world. Accredited by the Chartered Society of Forensic Sciences , the course will see you get to grips with the tools and processes used in real-life, forensic investigations, via our specialised labs and crime-scene facilities. Simulated scenarios will also challenge you to apply your know-how on the spot and, in the first year alone, modules are wide ranging, including Analytical Science 1 and Important Forensic Concepts, as well as supporting chemistry modules.
