About

The Master of Forensic Science is designed to give students advanced level knowledge across a range of forensic disciplines and offers a truly global perspective on the leading developments in forensic science analysis and interpretation.

The fully-online program offers a range of specialised study areas including toxicology, blood distribution and spatter and pharmaceutical analysis, allowing you to develop broader and more comprehensive skill sets in the field. Throughout the program, you will complete two compulsory research projects ensuring that upon graduation you can confidently plan and execute forensic research, based off in depth analysis and investigation. Our students also develop the writing and presentation skills appropriate for international journal publications and conferences.

On completion of this forensic science program, graduates are well equipped with knowledge and skills required to work in areas such as forensic laboratories, toxicology and pathology laboratories, drug assessment agencies and customs and border protection.
