Paper II
Forensic Anthropology, Diploma
Forensic Science and Criminology
Forensic Anthropology is the
application of knowledge of physical/biological anthropology to the development
and interpretation of evidence in legal context. Usually, forensic anthropologists
examine badly decomposed or severely damaged human bodies and work hand-in-hand
with investigating agencies to identify human remains. The present syllabus is
designed in such away to offer hands-on-experience that will adapt to virtually
any professional situation to follow in the forensic career. The student will
be trained at identifying human remains including bones and teeth,
anthropometry, analysis of hair, fingerprint identification, examination of
human body fluids and hematological markers and basic postmortem examination.
