Abstract

This paper studies the existing experience in China and abroad, analyzes the challenges faced by forensic talents training in China, and proposes policy recommendations to promote the development of education of forensic medicine: to establish the first-level discipline of forensic medicine to promote the overall strength of forensic medical science; to establish an eight-year training system for forensic medicine to innovate forensic medicine talent training mode; to set a professional degree for forensic medical postgraduates to meet the needs for high-quality applied talents; to establish a continuing education system to ensure the competence and professional level of forensic experts; and to provide forensic courses for clinical medical students to enhance their forensic awareness.
