MSc, PgDip, PgCert Digital Forensics

Digital forensics is becoming one of the most critical fields within forensic science.  As such, the Digital Forensics MSc at Cranfield University will help equip students with the necessary understanding of digital forensic science, courtroom skills, and research methods to prepare them to practice as digital forensic professionals.

Exposure to up-to-date research targeted at addressing current real-world problems means that students will be academically prepared to enter the digital forensics field and practically prepared for it too. 

A first- or second-class Honours BSc or equivalent in Computer Science, Digital Forensics, Information Security, or Forensic Science.  Students with other degrees who can show a knowledge of and interest in the subject will also be considered.  These might include graduates working in relevant professional fields of study, including forensic science, information technology, forensic engineering, and law.  

For those applicants looking to apply through the experiential route, you will require at least seven years of experience as a practitioner in, e.g., digital forensics, information technology, or forensic science.

20 hours of work permit weekly for international students.
