Overview

Students will study Deakin University’s Bachelor of Forensic Science (Honours) to broaden their understanding of a chosen discipline within the field, while building key research and soft skills that enhance their employment options and prepare them for further study. Honours is an optional year of specialized study that allows students to combine the theory and practical skills gained throughout their undergraduate degree. It is an opportunity to develop their expertise in a field they are passionate about and to gain invaluable research and life skills that will stay with them throughout their career. Students will be guided every step of the way by teachers and research staff who are experts in their respective fields, with international links and broad experience. They will be able to leverage Deakin University’s industry connections to work alongside professional forensic scientists. Through research, coursework and formal training, students will develop the skills and techniques needed for modern forensic science, including the examination and presentation of scientific evidence to inform investigations. Deakin University's research in forensic science is conducted in partnership with government departments, private agencies and leading international scientists, and is funded by national and international grants. This means that work students complete during their Honours program may contribute to producing research of global importance. Students will have a distinct advantage when applying for roles in forensic research, research science and insurance investigations. Students will also be well placed to pursue further study and research training, including masters and PhD programs.
