Forensic anthropology is the study of the human, or what remains of the human, for medico-legal purposes. It plays a key role in UK and international investigations in cases of inter-personal violence and homicide, repatriation, mass disasters and war crimes.
Students will learn how forensic anthropology contributes to the analysis and interpretation of human remains. Many of University of Dundee's expert staff are forensic practitioners. They will help students gain the skills needed to interpret skeletal remains, produce and present expert witness reports, and learn how these reports are used in the legal process. Students will also study either skeletal development or the techniques used in the search for human remains.
They'll have access to Dundee's skeletal collections to aid them in their understanding and knowledge of the human skeleton and the differentiation of human and animal remains. Dundee's collections include:
