The Forensic Science degree programmes at Keele
are designed to provide you with an outstanding
understanding of forensic science whilst exposing you
to a range of facilities and techniques you will find in a
typical forensic laboratory. We provide a friendly teaching
environment that allows you to develop your knowledge
and skills under the guidance of forensic academics and
practitioners. We provide a range of Forensic Science
programmes to suit your interests and career aspirations.
You will be taught in our dedicated forensic science laboratory and crime scene
facilities. The laboratory contains a range of modern analytical instrumentation
that is commonly used in commercial forensic laboratories. This will allow you
to gain experience on the type of equipment you will be using in your future
careers. Having a crime scene house allows us to provide context to our
teaching and gives you experience in a typical environment encountered
by a forensic scientist.
The teaching environment within the school is very friendly and supportive.
All academics in forensic science have an open door policy so you are able
to seek help and advice when you need it. You will also be supported by a
team of technical staff and demonstrators who are also key sources of help
and advice, particularly in the laboratory.
You will also be allocated a personal tutor when you arrive at Keele who will
monitor your progress throughout your studies and is another source of help
and advice. All of this helps explain why we have been voted as a top 10
provider of Forensic Science programmes in the UK for 2019 by the Complete
University Guide.
