Watch this video and think about how the career of digital forensics investigators relate to the social sciences. Write a journal entry describing what you think about the speaker’s pathway to his career.

Digital forensics relates to the social sciences because it is important to understand how psychology works and why people do what they do. You have to be able to produce reports with parsimony so that others can understand your findings, and look at evidence objectively to get a clear picture of what is going on or what has happened. It seems Mr. Teo was sort of placed into this field, but chose a path that sounded interesting to him and then started from the ground up, as he was an accountant by education and not a forensic analyst. He enjoys what he does and has done well in his field.
