How many long do you have to in college to be a autopsy?

Answer 1

In most states the only educational requirement is a High School diploma or GED. In states that use the coroner system, it is the forensic pathologist that has to be a board certified MD in pathology.

The job of Coroner and Deputy Coroner is becoming very popular due to shows such as CSI, therefore, there is a lot of competition and many deputies and coroners have advanced degrees or previous police backgrounds. Human anatomy, Biology, and anthropology are all good subjects to study. The reality of the job though is that there is no way to prepare for working a death scene until you become a deputy. Studying with a cadaver in school is in no way like working with a homocide or suicide. Also, the majority of cases tend to be older folks who died from natural causes.

Answer 2

A person needs a graduate degree in several areas, including biology, chemistry, and Archaeology. This can take at least 5 years to complete.
