Actually, it is easy for a civilian to witness an autopsy in the United States.
In fact, sometimes the autopsy room looks like Grand Central Station with visitors.
Write a letter to the local Chief Medical examiner stating you would like to view an autopsy. Tell him you are planning to take an EMT course, and believe it would be helpful.
Voila.
In a few weeks you will get a letter back giving you a time and date.
Dress conservatively, no shorts or flashy clothes. Shirt and tie works well.
Whether you will see males or females depends on the day.
No picturee and you won't get to touch the bodies.
