This course is an innovative and unique course that develops critical thinking and problem-solving skills while teaching students about forensic science. The multidisciplinary approach to this course addresses concepts in chemistry, zoology, anatomy, genetics, physics, medicine, mathematics and statistics, sociology, psychology, communications, and the law. Forensic Science is a natural vehicle for students to practice science as inquiry. For every piece of physical evidence brought in for analysis, the student must apply the scientific method. Students must be prepared to defend conclusions based on their own empirical evidence. The ultimate goal is for students to become confident that they can make sense of complex problems involving numerical data, evidence, uncertainty, and logical reasoning.
