Editorial Course Description

 
 
The past few years – the last decade even – has shown a growing interest in the behind-the-scenes work that gets the criminal behind bars. Crime scene investigators, forensics experts and other crime related technicians are popping up on night-time television, tucked inside New York Time’s best sellers and fictionally featured on Hollywood Blockbusters.

But one of the most fascinating jobs in the world of catching the really bad guys – serial killers and other serial offenders – is that of the criminal profiler.

Where detectives are on the lookout for physical evidence criminal profiles are on the lookout for a different kind of clue. Their job? To set about reconstructing the serial offenders’ motives AND their intent by poring over all of the psychological evidence that perpetrators leave behind at the scene of the crime.

 If you find yourself compelled to penetrate what lies beyond an offender’s criminal trail and into something of equal and arguable greater importance: the search for victims, a greater insight into the “modus operandi” of the criminal and their other deep and dark ultimate dreams, then this course is what you’re looking for to take you to the next level!

 There’s no need to wait around for a new semester either! Enrollment is always open, so there are no reasons that you can’t sign up for this comprehensive criminal profiling course RIGHT NOW!
