Key Facts

Analytical science is also widely used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, as well as in hospitals and analytical service laboratories. That means, therefore, that this dual subject course could help introduce you to a range of career opportunities post-university.

Accredited by the Chartered Society of Forensic Sciences, the course will see you get to grips with the tools and processes used in real-life, forensic investigations, via our specialised labs and crime-scene facilities. Simulated scenarios will also challenge you to apply your know-how on the spot and, in the first year alone, modules are wide ranging, including Analytical Science 1, Inorganic Chemistry 1, and Important Forensic Concepts.

Where this course differs from our BSc(Hons) is that, in the third year of this MSci, you’ll undertake a placement year in an industry setting. This focused time spent in an industrial laboratory could be the ideal option for you if you’re looking to stand out from the crowd upon graduation.

While on placement, you’ll hone practical and problem-solving skills, with your learning time on campus also designed to be as hands-on as possible. You’ll be supported by academics and experienced practitioners in forensic science and analytical science, both during your forensics degree and while securing a placement.
