FORENSIC STUDIES Master of Science FORENSIC STUDIES The master’s in forensic studies is designed for working adults as well as select Stevenson juniors and seniors who want to complete their degrees quickly and expand their career horizons. With the cost of U.S. economic crime nearly doubling during the past decade, many organizations rely on forensic teams.

These marketable skills are in great demand by public and private sector employers and the justice system. Students choose from accounting, computer forensics, interdisciplinary, investigation, legal, and criminalistics tracks. The program is offered in online and face-to-face formats, and it can be completed as quickly as 18 months or as part of the B.S. to M.S. option for qualified students. 20
