COURSE SYLLABUS(STUDENT COPY)
PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION
COLLEGECRIMINAL JUSTICE EDUCATIONCOURSE DESCRIPTION
The course covers the fundamental study of ancient and modern methods of personal identification such as Anthropometry, Orthodondology, Deoxyrebunuclic Acid (DNA), Palmistry, and with emphasis on the Science of Fingerprinting (Dactyloscopy), which embraces the identification and comparison of fingerprint patterns and ridge characteristics, the scientific recognition, development and preservation of latent prints; recording and classifying of fingerprints applying the Henry System, FBI extension Rule and NBI Modifications.
The value of the science of fingerprint identification in provoking an infallible method of identifying persons and criminals and its significance to crime detection is so well known, and its reliability is so firmly established. Hence, identification thru Dactyloscopy is by far the most widely used by law enforcement agencies because of its simplicity and its effectiveness.
COURSE OUTCOMES (CO)
After successful completion of the course, the student is expected to:
1. Manifest the WCC Core Values (BE-ATTITUDES);2. Acquire adequate theoretical and technical knowledge on personal identification and Dactyloscopy (Science of Fingerprinting);3. Interpret the different fingerprint patterns and ridge characteristics;
4. Record, classify and file fingerprint applying the Henry System, FBI Extension Rule and NBI Modifications and simulate proper methods and techniques in live and post-mortem fingerprinting;
5. Apply the scientific methods of recognition, development, and preservation of latent fingerprints, examination, comparison and preparation of fingerprint evidence for court exhibit;6. Critique the effectiveness of the Automated Fingerprint Identification System (A.F.I.S.).
