This course is for professionals who work within the disciplines of drugs analysis or toxicology. It aims to allow you to upskill whilst in employment.
The course is relevant to those working in several fields. These include forensic toxicology, forensic drug analysis, clinical settings, workplace drug testing, criminal justice and law enforcement.
The focus will be on professional training developed in line with professional organisations. This will allow you to upskill in areas such as:
laboratory and research process management
method validation and accreditation
scientific communication
data analysis and visualisation
professional ethics
You will act as co-creators when it comes to assessment. This ensures that the areas focused on reflect the needs of your employment. The use of portfolios will ensure a breadth of knowledge as well.
The course also offers broader employment opportunities than either general forensic science courses or highly specialised forensic toxicology courses. There is also a focus on leadership and networking.
A UK Lower Second-Class Honours (2:2) degree
Your degree should be in a relevant subject for studying the course (typically in chemical, pharmaceutical, biological, or forensic sciences)
You may also apply if you are able to demonstrate appropriate professional experience.
