February Graduation |
| 133 students who completed their studies in 2024 graduated from DMU this month. A big congratulations to all those who achieved their awards. It is always a privilege to see students walking across the stage to rapturous applause to receive their certificates. |
Full time CerHE |
| If you would like a fast track to the CertHE, we now have a limited number of full-time places. This means that newly recruited collision investigators can qualify with a CertHE within one academic year, which currently offers a substantial saving per student whilst doing so. Given the additional commitment to study by enrolling directly for the whole CertHE, the entry requirements are two A levels (accruing 72 UCAS Points), one of which is in a quantitative subject and five GCSE's at Grade 4 or above. |
New CCTV Advanced Courses launched |
We havee have taken our time in putting together a total of four CCTV courses which are designed to take those who wish to calculate speed from CCTV footage. The core course, (ENGS1015) remains based around the CertHE module which is also available as a standalone. The 3 four day advanced courses, which are all classroom based with no distance learning element and conclude with a competency test can be undertaken by anyone who has completed the core module either as a Part of their CertHE or as a standalone.
The modules are individually certificated by AiTS. There is no requirement to complete them in order or even complete them all if the method is not relevant to you. |
SolveAnalyticIf you have been on an uncertainty of measurement course recently you will know the importance of propagating uncertainties through your reconstruction calculations. To build effective calculations you will likely need to purchase either add-ins for Excel, buy mathematics software such as Mathcad, or use one of the services on the web. Users of our existing software programs have asked if we could write an uncertainty program that will help build uncertainty calculations, so we have been working in the background to upgrade SolvePro with a powerful new uncertainty engine and it is now available for release - SolveAnalytic, is written and developed by collision investigators, for collision investigators and replaces its forerunner SolvePro. Whilst continuing to be capable of performing all your collision investigation orientated calculations, SolveAnalytic incorporates a powerful uncertainty engine allowing for fast and easy uncertainty calculations. Alongside all the tools to allow random sample generation and graphing, this presents a complete uncertainty package with the ability to compare the results from the GUM linear approximation with the output of a Monte Carlo simulation and graphically show the best approach for any given scenario. With clear document style layout and recognisable Microsoft icons, SolveAnalytic could be your perfect companion tool to use alongside your MS Office report writing setup; giving you all the answers you need and with easy copy and paste options to boot. SolveAnalytic will replace SolvePro as your licence expires. It is available now to existing SolvePro users as a free upgrade for the remainder of the current licencing period by clicking on the Update button from the View menu. |
Dr Caryn Urbanczyk joins AiTSCaryn is a biomechanical engineer with 15+ years of academic and professional experience in orthopaedic and trauma biomechanics. She specialises injury mechanisms, tolerance and causation including helmet protection and failure. Caryn will primarily be doing civil reconstruction work; however, if you need assistance with where someone was sat in a vehicle, how injuries occurred etc. Caryn is available. Caryn has previously been working in the USA and has now settled in the UK. |
