Here’s a description for a course on forensic psychobiology, from a university in the U.K.

“This unique course offers a combination of psychology, forensic studies, and biological sciences. Psychology forms the main component of the programme and each core area of psychology is studied, including abnormal behaviour, mental illness, memory, thinking, personality, perception, social behaviour, and developmental psychology. You will receive training in both quantitative and qualitative research methods throughout the programme.

Forensic studies are concerned with understanding criminal behaviour and within the course you will be able to examine the causes of crime from a psychological and a biological perspective. Thus, the psychology of crime, psychopathology, crime and deviance, and models of offending, are components of the degree. In addition, life sciences have developed a number of techniques that aid in the detection of criminals and you will learn about these in modules on genetics, crime scene analysis, and forensic case studies. Finally, key areas of biology, which underpin the more forensic modules, such as human physiology, biochemistry and pharmacology, are also included in the programme.”

At what college do they have that major? That’s very multi-disciplinary. You could probably get jobs in several different fields. I’ve never actually heard of Forensic Psychobio.
