The Master of Forensic Medicine is a 1-year taught masters course designed primarily for overseas medical graduates. It may be suitable also for dental graduates, and for graduates in nursing or the biological sciences who have already completed a postgraduate degree such as an MSc or a PhD.

The intention is to provide postgraduate students with core knowledge and intellectual skills in forensic medicine.
