A multidisciplinary field
The Hindu
Forensic Science offers great career opportunities for someone with an analytical, problem-solving and logical bent of mind.
Among the many options available to those with an investigative or analytical mind is the upcoming field of Forensic Science. While many people associate this field with crime, it involves gathering and analysing evidence to establish the truth. When connected to a crime, it involves studying fingerprints, footprints, traces of blood and other material remains to solve the case. This multidisciplinary field involves aspects of biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, psychology, social sciences and law. Many recognised universities and colleges in India offer courses in Forensic Sciences, either as an undergraduate degree or a diploma. Students must have opted for Physics-Chemistry-Biology or Physics-Chemistry-Maths in Class 12 to enter this stream. There are also Master’s and Doctoral level courses available.
