“Forensic investigation is so wide-ranging that we collaborate with many other disciplines”, says Jaap Knotter, professor Advanced Forensic Technology. “For instance with students of our bacholor programmes on Crime science, Structural Building Engineering and Mechatronics. As IT is becoming more and more important to detect digital traces, it is one of the priorities on our research agenda. Outside Saxion we work with partners such as MESA+, the Psychology programme at the University of Twente, the Twente Safety Campus and the Police Academy.”
