"This course goes far beyond the basics. I’ve trained in full crime scene simulations using UWE Bristol’s specialist labs, preparing me for the real pressures of the job. I’ve learned how to present and defend evidence in court, while mastering the ethical and legal responsibilities of the field. It’s demanding—but extremely rewarding and essential for anyone serious about forensic science."
