Course Overview
What will I study?
The first part of the course immerses you in the full investigative process, showing how criminal investigations advance naturally and how policing and forensics are related fields. You will learn how the many individuals participating in an inquiry cooperate to accomplish a common objective through this. Along with being taught by knowledgeable instructors with years of expertise in the industry, the course also makes use of guest lecturers and webinars to provide you a solid foundation in current forensic and criminal investigation practices.
Our rich virtual criminal world, which enables you to position yourself in real-life events, is only one way that this course differs from others. This environment will be smoothly linked with your modules as an additional teaching tool, enabling you to apply the material you learn in classes, seminars, and workshops. As you move through several settings, including murder scenes, the police custody suite, the major incident room, police cells, the courtroom, the forensics lab, and a burial site where you unearth partially clothed bones, you'll have the chance to assume a variety of investigation tasks. This will give you knowledge of crucial procedures and roles in forensic investigation and criminal investigations, preparing you for forensic employment in the future.
