M.Phil in Forensic Sciences

Forensic biologists examine blood and other bodily fluids, hair, bones, insects and plant and animal remains to help identify victims and support criminal investigations.
Using technology in the lab and in the field, forensic biologists collect and analyze biological evidence found on clothing, weapons and other surfaces to determine the time and cause of death.

They keep detailed logs and write reports about what they find. Attention to detail is critical, because a single mistake can cause the evidence to be thrown out of court. Senior-level forensic biologists may testify in court about their findings.

Forensic biologists may become experts in:

  • DNA analysis
  • Forensic anthropology
  • Forensic pathology
  • Forensic entomology
  • Forensic botany
  • Biological chemistry

In addition to helping solve crimes, forensic biologists may investigate environmental contamination or other public health threats.
