Description
The Forensic Biology program integrates the study of science and law with investigative practice and theory. Students receive a comprehensive biology education through the study of life at all levels of organization from molecular and cell through whole organisms to population and community. Students practice case work, learn team-building, analyze ethical and legal issues related to evidence, and face the challenge of communicating complex scientific evidence within the legal system. Students in the program may also participate in a placement/mentorship course where they gain valuable “real-world” experience and begin to develop their professional network.
