About this programme
The Graduate Diploma in Forensic Anthropology has been designed specifically to acquaint students with current developments in basic forensic sciences and particularly those medical and social sciences which are of direct relevance to the application of forensic anthropology. This course will enable students to undertake advanced studies in forensic anthropology, develop an in-depth knowledge of the human skeleton and gain a practical understanding of the scientists role within the Australian legal system. There is considerable diversity of research related to forensic anthropology, ranging from traditional morphometrics through to computer-graphic facial reconstruction. Forensic anthropology has practical applications in forensic investigations as well as humanitarian efforts for the investigation of both living and deceased individuals.
