[publius2k4]

[h=3]The University of Florida offers the following programs in a distance education format. I emailed the faculty of this program and asked them the admissions requirements, and they said that any undergraduate major can apply, with no specific course or degree requirements. But they recommend a science undergrad. They have specific GRE score requirements and a 3.0 GPA.

MS in Forensic Science

MS in Forensic DNA & Serology

MS in Forensic Toxicology

MS in Forensic Drug Chemistry

MS in Veterinary Forensic Sciences

I found this program a few months back and forensic science sounded interesting to me. What turned me away was the degree title sounded odd, the courses are certainly geared towards forensic science but IDK what it has to do with the college of pharmacy.

Upon completion of the program, your diploma will state Master of Science in Pharmacy issued by the Graduate School of the University of Florida. Your transcripts will read Master of Science in Pharmacy, graduation date, major Pharmaceutical Sciences, concentration Forensic Science.

It's because the program is done through the UoF College of Pharmacy.

The wording of the degree isn't very important to me, but that's just me.

I've been looking at this program for quite some time. The GRE is the only thing holding me back. All of the forensic stuff seems pretty changeable, allowing you to pick and choose what most interests or fits your degree requirement.
