Course summary


Learn to use forensic science and apply forensic psychology to police investigations. Discover how to search and examine crime scenes and how forensic evidence needs to be processed, interpreted, and preserved.

Dig deep into the science behind psychology: the way humans think, feel, and behave. Discover how to examine crime scenes, and how forensic evidence needs to be processed, interpreted, and preserved. This involves field trips to places like the mortuary and bomb disposal sites. You'll also learn how to provide research-based evidence which may be used in the criminal justice system. In the final year you can apply your forensic knowledge in a mock courtroom scenario. You鈥檒l cover topics such as: - Crime scene examination and management.- Interpretation, presentation and preservation of evidence.- Apply biometric information in human identification.- Applying memory research from crime scene to court.- Understanding the language of the judicial system.


The perfect mix of psychology, criminal investigation and forensic science

Psychology is both an experimental and observational science. This means you will observe and measure human behaviour, undertake literature research, and develop, test, and evaluate theories. This culminates in conducting your own supervised research project in your final year, which is one of the cornerstones of your degree. You鈥檒l graduate with a thorough understanding of this fascinating world.This Psychology with Forensic Scene Investigation degree is
