Forensic Science (with Foundation Year)

About this course

Forensic science applies the methods of chemistry, biology, physics and other scientific disciplines to the investigation of crime and the analysis of evidence for use in legal proceedings. It is a field that demands both rigorous scientific technique and an understanding of the legal and procedural context in which scientific evidence is used. From DNA profiling and toxicology to trace evidence analysis and digital forensics, the discipline encompasses a wide range of analytical methods, all united by the requirement to produce reliable, defensible results. At Nottingham Trent University, this four-year full-time programme includes a foundation element that provides thorough preparation in the underpinning sciences before the main degree begins. This makes it well suited to students who wish to build their scientific knowledge from a secure base. You will study the core natural science
