Overview

Key facts

Forensic Speech Science (FSS) comprises various applications of phonetics, linguistics, acoustics, and computer science to tackling problems in police work or providing evidence in legal cases.
This course will equip you with the core practices of FSS without the intensity of the MSc and the need to carry out a dissertation at the end of it. It is designed and delivered in partnership with two professional forensic speech and audio laboratories, The Forensic Voice Centre and Forensic Speech Services. Their staff will also contribute to taught modules.
The learning experience integrates scholarly and professional contexts, allowing you to develop expert witness communication skills and gain hands-on experience of the latest generation of automatic speaker recognition technology. We have extensive partnerships with leading speech technology companies. The Forensic Speech Science programme is offered at University of York.
