Course Overview
Liverpool John Moores University’s BSc Forensic Anthropology with Foundation Year is a course that teaches how human skeletal remains can be investigated to get clues on age, ancestry, and sex. This degree is suitable for students who have an eye for detail and are curious about certain occurrences in their surroundings. The foundation year offers an additional year to learn the basics before progressing to the main course.
In this programme, students will understand psychology, micropaleontology, human anatomy, and forensic archaeology. These modules prepare them for jobs in a legal setting where they can examine skeletal remains to identify humans, their origin, and other relevant information.
Learning in this course occurs through online resources, lectures, interactive workshops, laboratory sessions, and seminars. Assessment methods include examinations, group projects, lab reports, and a final-year project.
