With millions of chemicals in existence, there is little wonder why it is important to understand the effects of these substances on the body and the methods capable of their detection. The relevance of drug use and abuse in forensic casework can be illustrated by statements such as the drug made me do it which is a very common defence argument leading to more lenient sentencing and reduced culpability.<br/><br/>In the words of Paracelsus, its the dose that makes the poison so you will graduate with strong quantitative and analytical skills. Among many topics, you will learn about many different types of drugs, how they act on the human body, how they are detected, how to report evidence of drugs, and defence arguments used in the court of law. You will also gain an appreciation of topics such as crime scene sciences, biology, chemistry and physiology.<br/><br/>Whether you are interested in a career involving clinical toxicology or are enticed by research involving novel crossover specialisms such as entomotoxicology, anthrotoxicology, ecotoxicology and pharmacogenetics, this course will prepare you for your career of choice.<br/><br/>**What you should know about this course**<br/><br/><br/>- This is the only Undergraduate Forensic Toxicology course in the UK.<br/><br/><br/>- Study a course that will provide you with a unique set of transferable skills to take into a variety of industries.<br/><br/><br/>- Gain a foundation in forensic toxicology to prepare you for the world of work in the forensic, practical, research, chemical, and pharmaceutical fields<br/><br/><br/>- Get hands on learning of the procedures you will encounter in the workplace<br/><br/><br/>- This course is taught at our Medway Campus in Chatham Maritime, Kent.<br/>
