This course aims to develop an appreciation of the competencies, skills and knowledge required for Higher Education and employment in science-based careers. You will collect and examine samples taken from simulated crime scenes in some of the more specialised units, such as a murder scene, fire scene and crash scenes. You will also analyse blood spatter, dust and compare fingerprints, study fire patterns, damage to vehicles, compare DNA samples, learn what makes a criminal, analyse crime statistics and carry out research. Team building and problem solving investigations will enable you to be an effective scientist. Your practical assignments will be supported fully by Biology, Chemistry and Physics theory required for you to understand analysing techniques. The course is modular and equivalent to 3 A Levels. Assessment is through assignments and projects and involves a large element of practical work.
