Forensic Science Degrees Online

If you have a passion for science and criminal justice, look to the field of forensic science for a good career fit. Forensic science technicians are as hotly demanded in the real world as they are on primetime television. With an online forensic science degree, you can gain the knowledge and qualifications you need to pursue an exciting career in forensic science.

Online forensic science degree programs accredited by the American Academy of Forensic Science are available at all levels. Depending on your educational goals, you might choose an associate degree in forensic science, a bachelors of science in forensic Science or Forensics and Toxicology, or a BS in Biology, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Natural Science, or Genetic Engineering with a specialty in forensic science. You can go on for a Masters or even a PhD in forensic science. Certificates in forensic science are also available if you just need a foot in the door.

Although coursework varies depending on the chosen degree, expect to gain a foundation in math and science with courses like: calculus, chemistry (organic and inorganic), biology, and physics. You'll learn quantitative analysis and statistics, and you’ll take courses specific to forensics: forensic microscopy, criminal evidence, and courtroom testimony. Though no degree can promise a specific salary, forensic science technicians' mean annual wage was $47,390, and job growth is above average.
