The Senior Project Basics

By: Thomas Bliven

What do detectives do?

• Being employed to be a detective is not easy work at all.

• This job consists of securing the scene of the crime, interviewing suspects, and configuring what happened and how it all happened.

• There are so many jobs that go into this job field such as crime scene photographer, fingerprint specialist, forensics artist, toxicologist, and physiologist just to name a few.

Job shadowing

• My shadowing consisted of riding with a detective on duty.

• Looking at fingerprints through inferred lights.

• Working with many products from sirchie.

More on my shadowing

• The place where all this was done is at the Nags Head Police Department

• Some of the people I stayed with for the day told me that they will be happy to have any other students.

My reason for deciding this career:

• Many factors go into choosing the job which you want to do for the rest of your life, but for me, the choice was because it would be something that I could learn more information about this job.

More on my product

• My product is a great example of my occupation because it is something that they actually do in the field at the crime scene.

• The act of “lifting a fingerprint” is something that some people may not know about beforehand.
