Program Overview

As a graduate from our BSc(Hons) Cyber Security and Digital Forensics, you'll be equipped to play an important role helping organisations manage cyber-attacks and investigate digital evidence. 

Why study cyber security and digital forensics?

Cybercrime is on the increase and set to keep growing as technology becomes more widespread.

High-level security breaches have led government, public services and corporations to dedicate more resources to computer security.

At the same time, digital forensics is playing an increasingly important role in uncovering evidence for law enforcement and private investigations alike.

Recognising the urgency of this threat, the UK government has highlighted an urgent need for skilled graduates in forensic computing.

Why UWE Bristol?

On our BSc(Hons) Cyber Security and Digital Forensics, you'll develop computer programming and database skills and expand your knowledge of computer networks, systems and the legal environment you'll operate in.

Gain vital professional skills, such as using industry standard forensic and security tools. Build your industry network and knowledge at presentations from visiting professionals.

Apply what you've learnt to practical projects, including investigating computer crimes and assessing the integrity of forensic data and computer security systems.

High demand for your skills will enable you to choose a placement from a range of specialisms.
