The BSc (Hons) Forensic Science course from the University of Wolverhampton will expose you to a diverse range of scientific disciplines and skills that will enable you to work in a variety of roles within forensic science. This Bachelor of Science degree is designed to provide students with a thorough understanding of the principles and practices of forensic science, including the scientific and analytical techniques used in the detection, analysis, and interpretation of evidence.
Why choose this course?
Pursuing a BSc Forensic Science degree opens up a diverse range of career opportunities within the forensic science field. Studying forensic science hones students' problem-solving, critical thinking, communication, teamwork, and time management skills, and the skills acquired through the program enable graduates to pursue career opportunities in many other fields, including research, academia, and healthcare.
Studying this degree is crucial for those wishing to pursue a career in the forensic industry. Forensic science takes scientific knowledge and methodology to answer specific questions in a legal investigation, in order to assist a court to decide what has happened. Considering the whole forensic process, from crime scene to court, this course will enable you to develop your skills in scientific and critical thinking, as well as independent study. You will also gain skills to record, recover, examine, and analyse evidence, to interpret the meaning of your findings and then communicate those findings and the underpinning science so that they are understandable to a range of audiences.
