Introduction to Forensic Science

Korshub take

Nanyang Technological University's forensic science course has drawn nearly 188,000 learners, reflecting genuine crossover appeal between true-crime curiosity and legitimate lab science.

It's built around the actual science behind an investigation — chemistry and biology first, procedure second — rather than dramatized case studies.

What you'll learn

• Core forensic chemistry and biochemistry principles
• Laboratory testing, research, and procedure standards
• Molecular biology and pharmacology as applied to evidence analysis
• The scientific reasoning behind criminal investigation

It suits science students, aspiring forensic technicians, and anyone drawn to crime documentaries who wants the real methodology underneath. A science or chemistry background helps but isn't strictly required to follow the course.
