Investigative Sciences and Law Enforcement Technology (ISLET) Project

随着越来越复杂的恐怖主义对我们国家的安全构成威胁，明尼苏达州的世纪学院通过为执法学生和目前有执照的专业人员提供最新的科学、技术和调查教育和技能，直接应对日益增加的风险。该项目正在对执法人员进行调查科学和技术方面的教育，并为课程规划、课程编制和授课、教员培训和信息传播建立一个区域来源。支持新的两年制学位（调查科学副学士）、新的证书、新的继续教育模块以及与四年制院校的衔接协议的课程正在制定中。新学位的课程将集中于以下七门课程：犯罪与事件制图、计算机取证、法医科学、国土防御、视觉取证技术、调查技术和危险材料科学。与包括和平干事标准与培训委员会在内的利益攸关方密切合作，确保新材料保持相关性，并符合新的和现有的许可要求。

With ever more sophisticated terrorism a threat to our nation's security, Century College in Minnesota is directly countering the increasing risk by arming law enforcement students and currently licensed professionals with updated scientific, technical, and investigative education and skills. The project is educating law enforcement personnel in investigative sciences and technologies, and establishing a regional source for curriculum planning, course development and delivery, faculty training, and information dissemination. Curriculum supporting a new two-year degree (Associate in Science in Investigative Sciences), new certifications, new continuing education modules, as well as articulation agreements with four-year institutions are being developed. The curriculum for the new degree will focus on the following seven courses: Crime and Incident Mapping, Computer Forensics, Forensic Science, Homeland Defense, Visual Forensic Technologies, Investigative Technologies, and the Science of Hazardous Materials. Close collaboration with stakeholders, including the Peace Officers Standards & Training (POST) board ensures new materials remain relevant and in compliance with new and existing licensing requirements.
