Students explore forensic techniques including fingerprinting, fibres, pH testing, blood and DNA analysis, and trace evidence to build evidence-based conclusions from crime scenes. They also examine psychological concepts such as sensation, perception, personality, memory and thinking, while investigating topics including eyewitness reliability, criminal profiling, body language, sleep and the influence of diet on behaviour and decision-making.
