The course covers a good range of forensic science. Some lecturers aren't too good at explaining assignments before telling us to do them, so many of us have no clue what to do or how to do it. read more

All staff are amazing and really supportive. Assessments are well thought out and adapted year to year to improve based on student reviews. The only downside is that the forensic focused employability support could be better as it is highly affected by visa issues read more

A range of non-lecture forms of teaching - labs, workshops, field trips - which makes the course more engaging. The quality of teaching is good too, the lecturers are really approachable and answer any queries or questions that arise throughout the course. read more

The curriculum is well thought out, the quality of the laboratory is really good for the practical work and the crime scene house enables effective learning in my course ofc. However there is one module that just seems a little pointless to a lot of people in the class, it’s not even a whole module just a big chunk of it. read more
