Course summary

Forensic speech science is the application of methods from linguistics and phonetics, signal processing, and computer science to legal casework. This can involve: comparing the voices of an unknown criminal and a known suspect, determining the region and social background of an unknown criminal where a suspect does not exist, determining the content of a disputed utterance, orthographic transcription, as well as audio authentication and enhancement.

This course aims to facilitate complex and dynamic research on a topic relating to forensic speech science. You'll become part of a distinguished research community with an incredible reputation and given the opportunity to make your mark in the field. We work with colleagues across faculties, making research at York a truly interdisciplinary experience.

In your first year, you'll submit a 2000-word summary of your project so far, then a 5000-8000 word summary in your second year. Your third year will be the culmination of your project and you'll complete your 80,000-100,000 word thesis.
