BA (Hons) Criminology with Forensic Science
University of HullCottingham Road, Hull, HU6 7RX
Course overview
This course trains you to debate the practical, ethical, and scientific issues around criminality and punishment. You’ll learn the science behind the collection, processing, and preservation of evidence. And be taught by expert staff that specialise in current criminology and criminal justice issues within one of the UK’s leading centres in this field.
We’re one of the few universities in the UK to have a replica crime scene training facility on campus. So you can get to grips with collecting evidence, exploring criminal activity and see the world of forensic science brought to life. You’ll put the theory into practice on field trips to courts, police stations and prisons, as well as policing projects and placements.
All thanks to our close partnerships with local, regional and national criminal justice agencies. You’ll get the chance to apply for a semester-long placement with Humberside Police. And can also meet significant regional and national employers at our annual Careers in Criminal Justice Fair.
