This program equips students for diverse career paths by combining psychological education with a strong grounding in forensic science and the U.S. legal framework.
The Bachelor of Science in Forensic Psychology emphasizes the practical application of psychological research and evidence-based methods within legal contexts. Embry-Riddle's Forensic Psychology program integrates the university's expertise in applied psychology, behavioral research, and forensic sciences.
This degree stands among just a select few undergraduate forensic psychology programs nationwide. It distinguishes itself further by featuring faculty-led instruction (rather than graduate assistants), intimate class sizes, and extensive practical learning experiences.
Throughout this program, students will develop skills to:
Support legal proceedings and judicial evaluations
Assist in criminal investigations
Help individuals facing difficult circumstances (such as crime victims)
Beyond academics, students can engage in mentoring at-risk youth, volunteering with justice systems, conducting research projects, building professional connections, and presenting at academic conferences. Students may also participate in the Psych Club (open to all majors) and PSI CHI (the Psychology Honor Society).
