FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGY
AND CRIMINAL PROFILING-
SYLLABUS - Course Code: FPCF002
Introduction: Forensic science is a vital instrument
for the detection or investigation of crime and the administration
of justice, providing crucial information about the evidence found
at crime scene, it is especially important that the training and
education of forensic scientists provide a solid scientific
background and a broad base in criminalistics. The validity of those
results depends on the knowledge, skills, and experience of the
forensic scientists working to obtain them. A forensic scientist
must be capable of integrating knowledge and skills in the
examination, analysis, interpretation, reporting, and testimonial
support of evidence. Forensic Psychology is the application of
psychology in the aid of legal investigation. Forensic psychology
looks into the vast psychological perspectives and applies them to
legal investigations including issues such as public policies, new
laws, competency, and also the mental state of a defendant. Forensic
psychologists are often depicted as criminal profilers who are able
to almost psychically deduce a killer's next move. The field has
witnessed dramatic growth in recent years, as more and more students
become interested in this applied branch of psychology. According to
the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median hourly earnings of
forensic science technicians are about $21.79 per hour and According
to Web Resources- Salaries within forensic psychology can range
greatly depending on the sector of employment, although most
entry-level positions for those with a Ph.D. start out between
$35,000 and $40,000 annually. Those in private practice who offer
consulting services typically earn more.
