About Forensic Science:

Forensic Science is a multidisciplinary programme that equips students with scientific knowledge and analytical skills applied to legal and criminal investigations. Students study subjects including forensic biology, toxicology, crime scene investigation, forensic chemistry, digital forensics, and the principles of criminal law. The programme blends laboratory science with legal frameworks, preparing graduates to handle evidence collection, analysis, and expert testimony. Upon graduation, students can pursue careers as forensic analysts with the Nigeria Police Force, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, federal and state government laboratories, or private forensic consulting firms. Graduates may also align with bodies such as the Institute of Chartered Chemists of Nigeria and the Science Association of Nigeria, while opportunities in academia and research remain equally promising.
