Why did you choose Cranfield?

I am currently in my final year of a part time MSc in Forensic Computing which I have been undertaking as part of my job as a Computer Forensic Investigator.

The first two years consisted of taught modules and related course work. The modules covered a variety of computer forensic topics. They were up to date, well balanced and delivered by knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff. The supplied notes are well presented and built to form a great reference guide. The associated course work was interesting and always reinforced the learning objectives of the related course.

The final year consists of a dissertation project in a topic of your choosing. During this period the staff are always available to give advice and monitor progress through regular update meetings.

Overall the course is hard work requiring  the student to invest a lot of time into the lessons and work but the skills you develop and the sense of achievement gained on completion of a piece of work make it worthwhile. It has made me a better forensic examiner which benefits me and my employer.
