A forensic chemist is a professional chemist who analyzes unknown substances and other forms of evidence using advanced chemical technologies. The forensics scientist uses in-depth scientific knowledge to interpret the anlaysis results and arrive to correct non-biased conclusions on the evidence. In the Forensic Analytical Techniques unit, students will gain expertise in all the major branches of chemistry (organic, inorganic, physical and especially analytical & bio-analytical) as related to forensic investigations. The analytical aspect of the course has been broadened from a more traditional chemistry focus to include modern and special types of analysis of importance to forensic science.","title-full":"CVB216 Forensic Analytical Techniques","title-short":"Forensic Analytical Techniques","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=CVB216&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=CVB216","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=CVB216"},"year":2025,"years":[2025]}
