Course Information

In this Distance Learning Forensic Science Level 4 Diploma course we will examine the fascinating subject of Forensic Science, which can be simply defined as the application of science to the law.

Forensic scientists use a range of techniques to find and study evidence from a variety of sources, like blood and other body fluids, hairs, textile fibres, glass fragments and tyre marks.

This course will teach you how to look for evidence to link a suspect with a crime scene.
