What it isYou study the chemistry behind crime scene investigation, learning how to analyze physical evidence like drugs, explosives, blood, and fibres to help solve crimes. This combines practical chemistry with forensic science, so you'll do lab work tied directly to criminal investigations rather than studying chemistry in isolation. It suits people who want chemistry but also care about applying it to real-world detective work.Honours Science is a broad science degree where you choose your major from fields like biology, chemistry, environmental science, computer science, or archaeology. Unlike a general science program, an honours degree requires you to specialize in one subject and complete more advanced courses in that area. It suits students who want a strong grounding in science but haven't yet decided on one specific career path, or who want deeper knowledge in a particular field.This program combines science courses with business studies, so you study both scientific subjects like chemistry, biology, or computer science alongside accounting, management, and economics. Unlike a straight science degree, you gain practical knowledge of how science-based industries operate and how to manage projects or companies. It suits students who want a science career but also care about the business side — whether that's starting a science company, managing research teams, or working in science-related industries.
