About Department of Forensic science

Background, academic mission, and departmental profile

Forensic science has acquired worldwide acceptance and recognition as the most reliable investigating technique in crime detection. The demand for forensic scientists is growing day by day not only due to the spiraling crime rate that is gripping the urban areas but also due to the fact that the criminals are increasingly using more innovative and high tech methods in their activities.
The traditional methods of investigations have become quite ineffective in these circumstances. The technically sophisticated methods developed by the forensic science are the most effective tools for investigations in such cases. In spite of the fact that such techniques are available, severe shortage of trained professionals in this area has become a major problem in crime investigations.
