UCL JDI Centre for the Forensic Sciences

The Jill Dando Institute Centre for the Forensic Sciences is a new initiative at University College London. Its mission is to contribute significantly to the development of the forensic sciences through high quality multidisciplinary research, teaching & learning, and through the establishment of collaborative projects with external partners. 

In September 2012 UCL is offering a new taught MSc in Crime and Forensic Science, which offers students the opportunity to learn the scientific principles behind forensic science within a crime science framework, and how these are interpreted in the courtroom. Modules are being offered by the departments of Security and Crime Science, Laws, Biosciences, Chemistry, Archaeology, Psychology, Management Science and Innovation and Computer Science - enabling students to specialise in a particular area of forensic science if they wish.

In addition to UCL-based modules there will be a practical component provided by the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) Crime Academy: students can attend a week-long course on crime scene investigation at their specialised Forensic Faculty in north London. UCL is the only university to be able to offer such an exciting opportunity.
