This course brings together Forensic Archaeology and Forensic Anthropology. Our MSc provides a deep understanding of how human remains are recovered and analysed. Forensic archaeology uses archaeological methods to find and recover human remains. It also uses forensic evidence in crime scenes and humanitarian investigations. Forensic anthropology focuses on the study of human remains. This is to help identify individuals for legal and humanitarian purposes. This course prepares you for work in forensic investigations, including: homicide cases, repatriation, mass disasters, war crimes. You will learn from forensic experts. They will guide you through real-world casework and practical applications. During the course, you will gain hands-on experience in forensic recovery and analysis. You will develop key skills such as: carrying out forensic searches and excavations for human remains, analysing skeletal remains to determine identity and cause of death, writing forensic archaeology and skeletal reports for legal cases, presenting evidence as an expert witness in court. You will take part in practical exercises and case studies. These will prepare you for real forensic investigations.
