Why do people commit crime? What is it about the criminal mind that is so different from others? Are some people just born killers, with innate biological psychopathologies from birth, or are they made by their environment, in fractured deprivation and social chaos? When we are taught not to harm others, why do some people cross the moral, mortal and psychological Rubicon?
The absence of a weapon does not mean a crime has not been committed, and more than that, sometimes we can solve crimes not by what is there, but by what is missing. Criminal profiling enables us to see from a distance, often the best place to stand in order to gain clarity. In the absence of the perpetrator, we are still able to see inside their mind. In careful reasoning, is revealed that their involvement, was, inevitable!
Forensic Psychology combines two worlds. Forensics, meaning ‘forum’, and psychology, meaning ‘of the mind’. Criminology, with a heavy focus on criminal law, looks at the crime itself. Crime Scene Analysis uses a scientific approach with the latest technology. With bottom-up perspectives, however, we can miss what is hidden in plain sight, that which exists outside of science – the mind. In combining a top-down perspective, with psychoanalysis, and the understanding of basic core principles in psychological behaviour, we gain a wider view of the perpetrator, what happened, how it unfolded, and even, why.
This course is entirely unique in its combination of multiple disciplines; including Depth Psychology, Forensic Profiling, Criminology, Psychoanalysis, Psychiatry and Neuroscience. For everyone intrigued by the fascinating world of Forensic Psychology, this rare opportunity to study with a qualified lecturer and experienced analyst, is taught straight into your own home. Join monthly classes where you will be entirely captivated throughout, as you explore in-depth key features in forensic psychology and learn how to analyse the criminal mind, crime scene, and notorious & contemporary case studies.
