Overall, I’m happy with my course in terms of content and lab examinations, however I wish we had more of those. One thing that I’ll mention is that my course, in the span of 2 years never showed any available experiences for students (virtual, placements, summer etc. for forensic science), nothing which is quite disappointing. read more
