___________________________________________________

A distance learning course is the ideal way to gain a Professional Diploma in Forensic Science. Whether you're looking to go on to further education, improve your job prospects or expand your knowledge, distance learning Forensic Science is a flexible and convenient course, which allows you to comprehensively prepare for an exam or career through home study. What's more, because the distance learning Forensic Science Diploma course is a fully comprehensive course, no prior knowledge is required.

In this course we will examine the fascinating subject of Forensic Science. Forensic science can be simply defined as the application of science to the law. In criminal cases forensic scientists are often involved in the search for, and examination of, physical traces which might be useful for establishing or excluding an association between someone suspected of committing a crime and the scene of the crime or victim. Such traces commonly include blood and other body fluids, hairs, textile fibres from clothing etc., materials used in buildings such as paint and glass, footwear, tool and tyre marks, flammable substances used to start fires and so on.

Sometimes the scientist will visit the scene itself to advise about likely sequence of events, any indicators as to who the perpetrator might be, and to join in the initial search for evidence. Other forensic scientists analyse suspected drugs of abuse, specimens from people thought to have taken them or to have been driving after drinking too much alcohol, or to have been poisoned. Yet others specialise in firearms, explosives, or documents whose authenticity is questioned.

POSSIBLE CAREER PATH
___________________________________________________________

Forensic Scientist
Forensic scientists locate, examine and compare traces of physical evidence for use in courts of law. They use the principles of biology, chemistry, physics and maths to obtain and analyse evidence from a variety of sources, including blood and other body fluids, hairs, textile fibres, paint, glass fragments and tyre marks. As a forensic scientist, the main focus of your work would be looking for evidence to identify a suspect, test proposed scenarios, determine whether or not there is evidence to link an item or suspect with a crime scene, or interpret analytical findings. However, your duties could vary depending on your specialism and may include some of the following: blood grouping DNA profiling detecting body fluids and where possible commenting on body fluid distribution examining and interpreting blood patterns on clothing, items or at a scene in an attempt to comment on how that blood was distributed examining and interpreting damage on clothing and other items identifying and quantifying drugs and poisons in body fluids and interpreting the effect these may have in terms of toxicity and behaviour identifying and comparing various materials, including fibres, glass, oils and lubricants, paints and soils, firearms discharge residue examining damage/tool marks and comparing with the suspect tool examining and comparing footwear mark impressions analysing handwriting, signatures, ink and paper (known as questioned documents) providing expert advice on explosives, firearms and ballistics identifying and quantifying controlled substances.
