What is special about the Chemistry with Forensic Science course at the University of Leicester?
The Chemistry with Forensic Science course at the University of Leicester has been designed to make use of experts in such disciplines as genetic fingerprinting, law, and analytical methods. Professor Alex Jeffries at the University of Leicester invented DNA fingerprinting and the first crime solved using this technique was in Leicestershire i.e., the Colin Pitchfork murders in 1985. We also believe that you should study Forensic Science modules from day one and not just as a final year specialty and, to this end; we have developed a truly integrated course that includes outside speakers from the profession.
