Overview

Bachelor of Forensic Science - Digital Forensic Science

As Australia's first forensic science degree, the world-class UTS Bachelor of Forensic Science is recognised for producing future leaders in this compelling practice field. 

Digital Forensic Science

As the world moves increasingly online, digital crimes like identity and financial theft, cyberattacks, fraud and extortion are on the rise – which means that skilled digital forensic specialists are more in demand than ever. 

The first of its kind in Australia, this major prepares students to collect, analyse and report data and digital information related to cybercrime. 

Learning combines the study of hands-on forensic science with specialist subjects in cryptography, programming, web systems and data analytics, among others. 

Students learn to identify and make sense of digital traces in common online environments like social media and online banking and gain the skills to recover stolen or damaged data that could provide crucial insights into criminal activity.

Research subject: In the final year of study, students produce an original piece of research that responds to a real-world forensic science challenge. 

Free electives: Students can enrol in an international exchange, pursue a professional internship, or tailor their studies with a choice of subjects from any UTS faculty.
