The state higher and technical education department has kick-started the process to ensure opportunities for the city science students to
get a degree and postgraduate degree in forensic science from the current academic session. If the initial talks take wing, Vidabha’s first forensic science institution would be part of city’s prestigious Institute of Science.
Former director of state forensic science laboratories Rukmani Krishnamurthy, who was in the city on Friday, conducted a joint survey with Mohan Gadegone, director of Institute of Science, to finalize a site for the construction of the proposed institution. The courses, along with the PG diplomas, would initially be conducted in the IS premises until the new building, being constructed exclusively for the purpose, is completed. The facilities of the new courses would be upgraded through phase-wise implementation.
A grant of around Rs 150 crore has been sanctioned by the state government for creating facilities for studying forensic science across the state. Apart from the city, the opportunities would be created at Pune, Aurangabad, Amravati and Mumbai. The courses would be available in Mumbai from the forthcoming academic session. Krishnamurthy claimed that the syllabus of the courses has been prepared viewing the global need and content of education would be at par with international standard.
“The syllabus has been approved by the study committee. The committee is overseeing the progress of starting the institutions. We have selected professors from different districts who have submitted their reports regarding the courses,” said Krishnamurthy who added that research and development laboratories would be also part of the developing infrastructure.
“The facilities would be also helpful for police, judicial and other government departments. Defence personnel would also find them useful due to their nature of work. Sectors like industrial, commercial, banking, environmental, media, pharmaceutical and corporate would be also helped in a big way. Even the academies of government wings like police and judicial would get qualified faculties,” said Krishnamurthy.
