Develop your knowledge and skills in forensic imaging, supporting you in your distance learning experience wherever you are in the world - for radiographers, radiographic technologists, and other forensic imaging professionals. You develop a forensic imaging protocol that adheres to relevant guidance and legislation and gain skills in producing images that are acceptable in court, by understanding the requirements for high-quality evidence. You also learn about the imaging of both children and adults for suspected physical abuse, the use of post-mortem cross-sectional imaging as an alternative to invasive autopsy, using imaging to locate forensic evidence such as drug smuggling and ballistic material, identification of the deceased, and age assessments for human trafficking or illegal immigration.The PgCert develops your current skills, enabling you to undertake forensic imaging in your department and comply with published forensic radiography guidelines. The PgDip and MSc develop further advanced forensic imaging skills in mass fatality incidents and disaster victim identification, and the skills you need to undertake independent research in a practice area of your choice. During your third year (MSc), you use your skills to contribute to the forensic imaging knowledge base, undertaking an independent research project.
You should be a registered radiographer, technologist or other radiographic/imaging professional with an appropriate honours degree (2.2 or above) or equivalent, and licensed to undertake medical or post-mortem imaging in your country. No forensic experience is required. Applications are welcome from newly qualified radiographers/technicians.
