Dear Student,

There is a wide scope for Forensic Science in the current scenario. The number of students pursuing a course in Forensic Science is less and the employment opportunities are more. However, there are employment opportunities in government sector. You need to qualify in the examination conducted by the government department or CBI to get a job.

There is a separate university or Forensic Sciences in Gujarat, i.e, Gujarat Forensic Sciences University. The varsity offers a varied range of courses in Forensic Science.
