This subject provides an in depth exploration of the key concepts, theories and principles underpinning contemporary investigations within the public and private sectors.
Students will experience the challenges that may arise in the course of investigations by engaging with real world case studies which examine the parameters of investigation strategies in the search for truth. The potential for organisational and personal prejudices and bias, noble cause corruption, and the impacts these may have on leadership, accountability, policy and decision-making are also explored.
The subject also considers the efficacy of successful outcomes through the implementation of professional and ethical standards, practices and procedures employed during investigations, and the impact these may have on the evaluation and credibility of evidence.
