In order to reach on to some conclusion a forensic scientist applies various scientific methods and principles in the investigation of criminal cases. Moreover, a keen analysis of the clues collected from a crime scene is fundamental for forensic scientists. Forensic Science requires handling lots of pressure from various sides e. g. police, judiciary, administration, etc. Similarly, a forensic scientist is expected to work over time, spend lots of time in investigation, be prepared for scrutinizing the evidence found at the crime spot and do many other duties. Besides working with police as investigative officers, forensic scientists have plenty of other career options including that of specializing in subjects such as medicine, engineering, fingerprinting, insect study, languages, geology, etc. And can work as expert consultants to expand their employ ability.
