School of Law, Policing and Forensics

The School of Law, Policing and Forensics has a range of exciting undergraduate and postgraduate courses spanning academic disciplines from law, through criminology, to forensic investigation.

Flexible full-time, part-time, on-campus and distance learning options fit around the unique needs and lifestyles of our students. Our international partnerships let students study in their home country while earning an internationally-recognised qualification from Staffordshire University.

With degrees accredited by the likes of the Law Society, the Chartered Society of Forensic Science and Skills for Justice, everything we do positions our students for the next step in their career. We are also part of a trailblazing consortium working with the College of Policing to reshape police education. This will include new degree apprenticeships for police officers.

Our specialist facilities include forensic science and criminalistics laboratories, a fully functioning crime scene house and mock law courts, all of which provide all students with a hands-on learning experience.

Our staff are respected experts in their academic disciplines, and contribute to contemporary debate and technological advances. This adds up to a positive impact on the local, national and international community.
