Paul is the course leader for the Forensic Science and Criminal Investigation degree. He is also the module leader for the Crime Scene Science and Forensic photography modules across first year. Crime scene science takes students across a journey to be able to assess, document, recover and fully process a volume crime scene. Paul says the art of photography is taught with an emphasis looking at forensic issues and crime scenes along the way. Students need no knowledge of photography as the process starts with basic instruction all the way through to advanced techniques being able to be implemented in to various situations.
