On arrival at the start of the course students are provided with extensive course material. Much of it will be provided on a CDROM containing lists of most of the reprint holdings that the library keeps. This now runs to about 100 volumes of published papers, as well as projects and dissertations from previous years. The CDROM also includes copies of course work and dissertations from previous years. The course did start in October 1992 at the University of Surrey and then moved to the University of Liverpool to start in October 1994. There are already well over 100 dissertations, laying the groundwork for the new field of Investigative Psychology. These are available in the University of Liverpool Library, restricted in the main to postgraduate students in the Centre for Investigative Psychology. A great deal of information about the course, including ethical considerations, are provided on this CDROM and one of the earliest tasks for you will be to familiarise yourself with this material.
