Master Of Forensic Science Extension

Your studies will begin with two core subjects: Foundations of Forensic Science and Forensic Inference and Interpretation, designed to equip you with the practical, interpretive, and investigative skills required to succeed. From there, you can shape your degree by building specialist skills in domains of your choosing, from forensic toxicology to biometrics and chemical criminalistics. This course is part of an articulated program, allowing students achieving a credit average in their first year of study to transfer into the Master of Philosophy in Forensic Science at UTS.

Your research-informed curriculum is focused on highly practical, case-based activities that take place in real forensic science environments, such as the acclaimed Crime Scene Simulation Labs at UTS.
