About this course

Chemistry with forensic science is a degree that combines rigorous training in chemical science with the specialised knowledge of how chemistry is applied in legal and criminal investigation contexts. Chemistry provides the fundamental understanding of matter, reactions, and analytical techniques that underpins all forensic work, while the forensic science element applies this to the detection, analysis, and interpretation of physical evidence in criminal and civil cases. The combination is well suited to students who are drawn to analytical chemistry and who want to understand its application in a socially significant professional context. At the University of Huddersfield, this programme begins with a foundation year that provides additional scientific and academic preparation before the main degree begins, making it accessible to students whose prior qualifications would benefit from
