second cycle of studies leading to a master
degree in Forensic Sciences aims to create
a space for specific training of professionals in
order to address issues related to evidence including
obtaining scientific evidence, in a multidisciplinary
context. The aim is thus to promote
scientific research in this area, preventing
theorizing practices to arise in abstract
form or only supported by the experience of
foreign counterparts.
The student must, after completing this cycle
of studies, be able to develop scientific investigation
in the field of Forensic Sciences with
a certain autonomy, namely in his/her area of
specialization.
Legal Medicine
Forensic Psychiatry and Psychology
Forensic Laboratory Sciences
In terms of occupational perspectives, it is assured:
a) The enhancement of knowledge and skills of forensic
professionals, which can allow them to better progress
in their careers.
b) The acquisition of knowledge and skills to graduates
who intend to apply for jobs related to the field of forensic
sciences, whether at a national level (such as
the National Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic
Sciences, IP, in the Organs of Criminal Police, the Judicial
System in Higher Education, or even in private
work), or abroad.
