Forensic Science
Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) will become the first higher learning institute in Asia to offer a bachelor’s degree in Forensic Science in July.
Congratulation but is the degree course going to be another easy money scheme that we are so use to encounter like lecturers who do not know what they are teaching nor do they bother to update themselves with the latest findings. It is a wonder they do not record their own lectures and see whether they are understood by the students. Do you know that our neighbour Singapore has a world renowned forensic expert, yet they do not offer Forensic Science in their University?
Dr Siti Hamisah said UTM started working with the police five years ago. What have you actually achieve so far? Many reported cases have been noted for lack of knowledge in collection, findings and keeping of evidences.
The course is starting in July 2008, practical training at the forensics lab will be in May to June next year. Are the students going on a Concorde schedule? My understanding from oversea Universities is that only Third Year Students are allowed to go for practical training after they have passed and understand their basic. Those who do not attain certain marks cannot go for practical at all. So can Dr Siti Hamisah explain to me why we are so much advance and better than the Australia, America, Britain, Germany, Korea and Japan?
Please do not let our university be noticed for the wrong reason.
