BSc (Hons) Forensic Science

... United Kingdom
... Plymouth Marjon University

Course Overview

Our BSc (Hons) Forensic Science degree readies you to apply science to crime scene investigation. You'll understand forensic science's part in the criminal justice system and learn how to control, preserve, record, and recover evidence from a crime scene or other incidents.

You'll study crime, develop the skills required for crime scene investigation and the seizure of evidence, learn the forensic science techniques for testing physical evidence from crime scenes in the laboratory, write a witness statement for court and give evidence or oral testimony in a mock court setting.

You'll also examine crime in the context in which it happens in the local, national and international arenas. On campus, you'll have access to realistic, simulated environments, including a well-equipped forensic laboratory and a crime scene house, where you'll get the authentic experience of collecting and analyzing evidence from fake domestic crime scenes.
