Our Team
Professor 
ProfProfessor Robert Milne, Dean of Applied Science at the Institute with over 40 years of experience at the Scotland Yard and a Forensic Intelligence pioneer adds, “the blended teaching model where students learn the theory online and then meet up for practical laboratory work is game-changing, allowing for busy professionals to connect with students seamlessly. Teaching is frequently underrated but at the Institute, this highly fulfilling job is made accessible and truly valued. In addition, academic staff and students are encouraged to become members of the European Association of Crime Analysts (EACA) and Chartered Society of Forensic Sciences (CSFS) giving them access to the latest research and access to their peers”.
Our core staff consist of a talented team with distinguished professional experiences in their own respective fields. As a growing enterprise, we are also continuously building our team through new recruits and ensuring sufficient training and apprenticeship to our newer member of staff.
