FORENSICS SCHOOL: Inside a Criminal Justice Training Center
For coursework involving difficult and sometimes disturbing material, it doesn't hurt to show students what their compatriots
in other schools are going through. This series goes inside the Forensic Science and Police and Criminal Investigation program
at the U.K.'s renowned University of Central Lancashire. Each episode focuses on a particular group of students as they sift
through mock-ups of real-world crime scenes and put theory to the test in complex lab work. Featuring many practical skills
and investigative processes needed to work in the criminal justice field, the series also helps shed light on career
opportunities and choices. ***Viewer discretion is advised for all programs.
BODIES, BLOOD, AND BALLISTICS - From the physics of bullet trajectories to the grim details of human decay, forensic
science is a challenging discipline for any student to enter. This program ushers viewers into the prestigious Forensic Science
department at the University of Central Lancashire in Great Britain. Tests and coursework involve ballistics experiments used
to solve a shotgun shooting case; an introduction to blood splatter analysis at the school's mock crime scene facility; and an
ordeal that every first-year forensics school scholar, regardless of his or her personal goals and sensitivities, is required to
undergo - the Death and Decomposition lecture.
HANDS-ON POLICE WORK - Fingerprint analysis, crime scene photography, the fine art of grave digging - these are only a few
of the highlights on the path to mastering forensic science. This program follows the progress of students in the respected
Forensic Science department at the University of Central Lancashire. As part of the Forensic Anthropology course, a thirdyear
student has to put himself in the mind-set of a murderer as he learns how to dispose of human remains. Meanwhile,
first-year students knuckle down at the school's mock crime scene facility for a practical test in fingerprinting and crime
scene documentation within various simulated scenarios.
CRIME SCENE CHRONICLES - Criminal investigators must be able to analyze any type of crime scene, be it a criminal's
abandoned car or the elegant surroundings of a manor house. This program follows crime scene studies undertaken in the
renowned Forensic Science department at the University of Central Lancashire in the U.K. Viewers accompany first-year
Police and Criminal Investigation students as they gather evidence from within and outside mock automobiles; attempt to
solve an armed robbery of wealthy partygoers through lab analysis of blood, fabric, and glass shards; and confront several
other realistic and often gory crime scenarios.
FROM CANINES TO COURTROOM - Although they perform a vital service, police dogs aren't the only creatures to keep track
of at crime scenes - wild animals can play a role, too. This program studies the usefulness of canines and the often confusing
influence of scavengers as it documents coursework at the University of Central Lancashire's Forensic Science department. In
addition to portraying the police skills of man's best friend and the difficulty of locating victims' remains in a forest
environment, the program also looks at preparations for a mock trial. Students in the Forensic Law module must organize and
present findings as if they are expert witnesses delivering scientific testimony for the prosecution.
GOODBYE CLASSROOM, HELLO CRIME - Creating a DNA profile, identifying skeleton parts, finding hidden graves - just a few
loose ends to tie up before graduation! This program represents the culmination of three challenging years in the Forensic
Science department at the University of Central Lancashire. But first, viewers follow a first-year student as she prepares for a
genetic profiling exam and a second-year as she studies human infrastructure for an impending bone quiz. After two thirdyears
face a final test in locating clandestine burial sites, it's on to the commencement party - where departing students
reflect on their experiences, discuss career plans, and contemplate life after Forensics School.
