SCI 1001

FORENSIC SCIENCE

An interdisciplinary introduction to science through the application of the process and concepts of science to investigate questions of legal interest. In this course designed for non science majors, students will learn to analyze and evaluate evidence through the application of the scientific disciplines of chemistry, physics, and biology. The goal of the course is to provide students with a theoretical foundation of the key analytical methods in forensic science through hands-on experimentation, cooperative learning through group projects, and critical interpretation of data. Emphasis will be placed on developing good laboratory skills, sound scientific reasoning, and problem solving skills. This course consists of 2 hours of lecture and 3 hours of lab each week. *lab science
