Forensic Science is the application of scientific principles and methods to assist criminal and civil investigations and litigation. The Master of Science in Forensic Science program is an inter-college collaboration among different academic units and provides students with a strong foundation in criminal justice and homeland security, computer sciences, biology, chemistry, and other related fields. It introduces them to relevant topics in criminalistics, the law of evidence and courtroom presentation, digital forensics, forensic chemistry, forensic biology, crime scene investigation, and appropriate social sciences.

All of our graduate course offerings are web-based. Graduate programs in particular cater to the needs of the working professional, allowing 24 hour access, advanced topics and projects, and peer networking with others working in the field.

In addition to general courses, there are specialized courses for those interested in Law Enforcement, Digital Forensics, and Science (Forensic Chemistry and Forensic Biology).
