Geology is the study of the structure, evolution and dynamics of the Earth and its natural mineral and energy resources - if it hasn't been grown, then a geologist has discovered it. Our society is based on the work of geologists in the hunt for natural resources for energy and materials for modern living. The discipline draws on knowledge from many different aspects of science such as chemistry, biology, and physics as well as other subjects such as geography, environmental science.<br>Geoforensics is the application of geology to criminal investigations. Geoforensics is a practical subject requiring the use of applied problem-solving, laboratory and field skills to collect and analyse geoforensic data.<br>Our Geology (Geoforensics) BSc provides particular emphasis on the geoforensic analysis of earth materials and how it can be applied to a range of criminal, civil and environmental criminal applications. You will learn how geoforensic trace evidence can be used to link material or an offender to a crime scene. The course also includes how to undertake a multi-phased geoforensic search for missing persons, suspected murder victims, environmental/wildlife crime and to recover items of forensic interest.
