BIO-109 Forensic Science (with Lab)

Forensic Science takes the student into the world of scientific problem solving by creating new "crime scenes" periodically throughout the semester. Students will be expected to observe the scene, collect evidence, formulate possible hypotheses, analyze the evidence with the appropriate analytical techniques, and draw conclusions based on their results. The course is designed to teach students scientific reasoning, data collection, and the confirmation or rejection of possible hypotheses. There is no prerequisite or co-requisite for this course, other than a strong motivation to learn. This course fulfills the general education lab science requirement. Considered an elective in the Biology Minor for Education Majors.
