NATIONAL FORENSIC SCIENCES UNIVERSITY

The National Forensic Sciences University (NFSU), erstwhile Gujarat Forensic Sciences University (GFSU) is the world's first and only University dedicated to forensic science and its allied subjects. This unique University was envisioned by Hon'ble Prime Minister of India Shri Narendra Modi as the then Hon'ble Chief Minister of Gujarat in 2008 to be an institution of higher learning of International standard and to meet the huge shortfall of experts in the different fields of forensic science across the world. It came into being on 11th February, 2009 at Gandhinagar, Gujarat with the appointment of Dr. J.M. Vyas as its first Director General. On 1st October 2020, the Government of India elevated the university into a National University and established NFSU through National Forensic Science University Act.
