One of the vital strength of the School of Forensic Science is M.Sc. Forensic Science Programme. The Programme aims to train and transform the potential scientists to create a strong legal system for tomorrow. The programme ensures skilled scientific investigators by way of skill based training in collection, handling and analysis of evidences for the purpose of justice.
Moving away from the traditionally conceived expertise of M.Sc. Forensic Sciences such as Fingerprints, Questioned Documents , Ballistics, Speaker Recognition, Video Authentication , Analytical Chemistry, Toxicology , Explosives Serology and DNA Analysis, Forensic Science has evolved into a new arena. By that, there is a scope of extending the expertise for the various complex issues relating to any of the commonly encountered in the society to its realization. In every specialty of Forensic Sciences, there has been synergetic inclusion of the novel techniques for the easier, smoother, full proof methods of investigation for more prudent results without any flaws or the reliable ones.
In every means, the composite technology and expertise is made available to the prospective investigative experts through this specialized academic programme by means of routine practical, simulations analysis and other methods. This leads to the scope of technology dependence/reliance and authentication with the necessity for the proof and also as a hallmark.
Fingerprint Evidence has been one of the most illustrious and Gold evidence in Forensic Crime Scene Investigations. Fingerprints finds its impressions since ages in Indian scriptures Samudra Shastra, compiled by a sage named Sudra Rishi in 3102 BC , which describes the significance of fingerprints as evidence. Fingerprints are also being used as biometrics and has been able to solve civil and criminal related cases to a length since ages. It has significant advantage over many evidences as even the identical twins could be identified by fingerprints.
TP.G. Diploma in Fingerprints Science is being offered at National Forensic Sciences University which strengthens academically and practically the students from multiple backgrounds for work in the field of Forensic investigations , development of fingerprints at crime scene and at laboratory, identification and individualization through fingerprints with the support of conventional and modern methods of investigative tools and automated techniques.
The teaching pedagogy involves the amalgamation of latest teaching methodology using, multimedia, case studies, simulation and investigation of cases and moot court presentations. For practical training students are also attached to reputed NABL Accredited Forensic Science laboratories to have hands on training on Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS).
An abundance of crucial information can be gathered from documents related to a criminal or civil case. The suicide note found next to the deceased—was it actually written by a killer trying to cover up his crime? The bank robber’s hold-up note—does it contain invisible impressions that indicate the address of the hideout? The will of a wealthy person—was it altered so a relative could receive a windfall?
The discipline of forensic document examination, often referred to as “questioned documents,” is frequently associated with white-collar crimes such as check fraud; however, in practice, this area of forensic science can be used in a wide array of cases from medical malpractice to art forgeries to homicides.
Armed with sophisticated technology, forensic document examiners can peer into the visible and invisible marks on a document to extract an abundance of details that may verify authenticity or provide additional information crucial to the investigation
