Forensic Scientist Overview

You are sitting at the edge of your seat, watching with intense concentration as the detectives, with the help of the forensic team, catch a ruthless murderer.

 

Are you fascinated by the way they unravel a crime from things like hair, tissues, nails, paints, poison etc.? If you think that not only the dead bodies but also objects like hair, fur, foot prints etc at the have their own stories to tell, you are reading about the right career path.

 

As Forensic scientists, you will be required to apply scientific knowledge and skills to investigate crimes. The role of the forensic scientist is twofold: to analyze physical evidence found on a victim at the scene of crime and compare it to evidence found on a suspect and to provide expert testimony in a court of law.

 

The information you will provide as part of forensics may help the police to find or eliminate a suspect in a crime. Forensic Scientists usually specialize in one area of forensics, such as DNA analysis, firearms examination or toxicology (the analysis of body samples for drugs and poisons).
