Forensics is an amazing course to study with a blended mix of lectures and labs, you are sure to have a broad knowledge about every main path of forensics. The staff are very knowledgeable and supportive and the sessions are action-packed and full of useful information. Labs are weekly and are critical in ensuring we know how to practically handle things we only knew theoretically before. There are also lots of extra resources and sessions to further develop your knowledge and passion for Forensics.
