The answers to the question above are a Forensic Pathologist and a Coroner, and the highest degree to achieve those career is a Ph.D. A forensic pathologist works to determine the cause of someone's death. A coroner works to certify and to confirm someone's death under a jurisdiction. Both perform the autopsy in their job description.
