Forensic Science

Girls-Only Course;
Prerequisite - Successful completion of one year of high school laboratory science or permission from the administration;
Full-Year Course

Forensic Science examines the application of science to the criminal and civil laws enforced by the justice system. Students explore the science of criminology by using a combination of science disciplines. As students learn to differentiate between actual techniques and some of those portrayed on popular television shows, they evaluate current procedures used by real crime labs to understand some of the limitations of the law, police, and forensic science. Students examine scientific techniques behind the analysis of physical and eyewitness evidence, toxicology, DNA fingerprinting, fire and explosives, bones, handwriting and document analysis, and other relevant pieces of evidence. Throughout the course, students investigate simulated crime and accident scenes, collect and analyze evidence, and develop observational skills and deductive reasoning. ​
