QUANTIFYING AND EVALUATING FORENSIC EVIDENCE
2 DAY MASTER CLASS AT THE POSTGRADUATE STATISTICS CENTRE, LANCASTER UNIVERSITY ON 24 & 25 SEPTEMBER 2009
PRESENTED BY DR DAVID LUCY
This course is aimed at professionals from law, law enforcement and forensic science, who have a need for greater quantification of their findings for presentation in the criminal, or civil, justice systems.
It aims to teach those whose mathematical skills may be minimal, a basic grounding in the evaluation of observations commonly made by forensic scientists within a context of evidence.
The only prerequisite for this course is basic numeracy. The aim is to give participants a thorough appreciation of the theory and application of the use of statistical reasoning to forensic evidence.
They will also be able to approach the statistical evaluation of forensic evidence in a small number of restricted areas of forensic science.
Cost: Postgraduate Students - £50 / Academic Staff from HE Institutions - £100 / Participants from non-HE Institutions - £390
