Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières’s bachelor’s degree in forensic science has been gaining popularity despite its low graduation rates, reports Radio-Canada. Enrolment for the program has increased from 25 students in 2020 to 51 students last year. However, program administrators noted that the program has a low completion rate, likely due to the heavy workload and misconceptions surrounding the program, such as the expectation that forensic science in real life will resemble the TV series CSI. Professors told Radio-Canada that graduates are always able to find work, while one student noted that finding a job is difficult because of the specificity of the degree.
