Can you recommend the best college for forensic science in the UK?

I am considering studying forensic science abroad, specifically in the UK. I've heard there are some excellent programs over there. Which colleges should I look into for a solid forensic science education?

Sure, I'd be glad to help out with that. Here are some of the top universities in the UK offering excellent programs in Forensic Science:

- University College London (UCL): Known for its high standards of research, UCL offers a Forensic Sciences MSc that focuses on a blend of theoretical and practical aspects. It involves crime scene investigation, laboratory analysis, and expert testimony, and also explores different areas such as forensic anthropology, criminalistics, and forensic chemistry.

- King’s College London: This university is internationally renowned for its science programs. Their Forensic Science MSc is designed to provide in-depth knowledge of the area and has a particular focus on digital forensics.

- The University of Strathclyde: Offers a Forensic Science course recognized by The Chartered Society of Forensic Sciences. The department's forensic chemistry research outputs are considered world-leading, which could be beneficial if you're interested in research.

- University of Dundee: Here you can find MSc courses like Analytical Science for Industry, Analytical Toxicology, and Analytical & Forensic Science which focus on areas that intersect with Forensic Science.

- Teesside University: It offers a well-respected BSc in Crime Scene Science which is hands-on and practical.

Keep in mind that it will also be important to consider other factors such as location, tuition fees and potential scholarships, student life, and opportunities for internships or placements when choosing a university. While the forensic science program is, of course, crucial, looking at the overall picture can help ensure that you get the most out of not only your academic experience but also your time studying abroad. Good luck!
