Students hooked on the TV crime show CSI will be able to unravel their own mysteries thanks to a new course at the University of Greenwich at Medway.

The university’s school of science will be running a new BSc in forensic science and criminology course from September.

Students will study in brand new labs in Medway while also spending time at the Greenwich campus.

Also starting in September is a BSc in sustainable development focusing on environmental sciences and their impact on climate, agriculture, building design and regeneration.

Dr John Newbury, head of school science, said: “These courses are science based but bring in other elements such as the law and the environment which give them a broader appeal. Prospective students who may not have traditional science-based qualifications can also apply for these courses.”

Students taking A-levels this year can apply for the courses through clearing on or after A-level day results on Thursday, August 14.

An open day will be held at the university campus in Medway so people can find out more about the courses on offer. These take place on Saturday, August 16, from 10am to 3pm, Thursday, August 21, from 2pm to 8pm and Saturday, September 13, from 10am to 3pm.

Mature students over the age of 21 and those with qualifications can apply now on 0800 005 006.
