Master of Forensic Information Technology
Course length
Two years full time
Course description
The Master of Forensic IT covers the critical aspects of forensic information technology: seizing and securing IT equipment used for criminal activity; interpreting and analysing the content of hard disks and other electronic media to build an understanding of the processes underpinning possible criminal activity; gathering evidence from electronic media and other sources of potential criminal activity in a systematic and rigorous way; presenting such evidence in a court of law in a way that is intelligible to non-experts; and recreating e-laundering trails to allow for seizure and forfeit of criminal proceeds if required by a court of law.
Students will study eight papers in the first year of the Master of Forensic IT, and upon successful completion will undertake a thesis in the second year. The teaching strategy will be heavily practical, with lectures being supported extensively by workshop sessions in the School of Computing and Mathematical Sciences’ Network Laboratory, where dedicated and specialist hardware and software facilities will be provided for forensic computing.
