【Education】
Forensic medicine contributes to maintaining safety as a democratic law-abiding country while making fair decisions from a medical point of view and respecting basic human rights. With the progress of clinical medicine and changes in social systems, the scope of forensic medicine will expand. Forensic medicine is required to discover new problems and make new scientific recommendations based on the new knowledge that has been positively involved in these problems. After recognizing the importance of forensic medicine as a social medicine, the aim is to learn forensic medicine from both basic theory and applied medical aspects, and to acquire knowledge that can be immediately applied to practical activities as a doctor.
