On behalf of Team NICFS, I welcome you to the redesigned website of NICFS, which is in the service of nation for last 44 years. At present we are discharging our mandate of promoting teaching, training and research in criminology and forensics science. We have trained about 41,000 officers from Police, Judiciary, Prisons, Prosecution, Defence, Customs, Forest, Medical, Public Sector Undertakings, Nationalised Banks as well as Scientists from Central and State Forensic Science Laboratories. Since 2004, the Institute started Postgraduate Courses viz., M.A. (Criminology) and M.Sc. (Forensic Science) under affiliation to Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, Delhi. So far 163 Criminology and 270 Forensic Science students have graduated from this Institute.

The Institute has also introduced Postgraduate Diploma Courses in various other subjects. The Institute is actively spearheading awareness in the field of Cyber Security for the last 3 years.

Recently, we have introduced "Post-course Testing" for trainees and those who qualify the examination would be awarded NICFS Certification. The Institute has introduced mandatory modules on IPR Law and Cyber Security & Law in all "in-service" courses since 2017. Any suggestion to improve our functioning is welcome.
