Solve crimes with science.
Explore fingerprinting, handwriting analysis, microscopy, chemical testing, blood typing, blood spatter analysis, tool impression matching, and ink chromatography.
Document crime scenes, test unknown substances, analyze evidence, and compare your findings to real forensic investigations.
Students in Forensic Science solve mysteries, examine evidence, and think like real investigators. They become more curious, detail-oriented, and excited to explore how science helps solve crimes. With hands-on labs and step-by-step investigations, students build confidence as they dive into the world of forensic science.
Each day brings a new challenge that strengthens students' understanding of biology, chemistry, and the scientific reasoning behind forensic investigation.
Families receive photos and videos capturing students as they investigate crime scenes, conduct lab tests, and complete their final forensic case. Students leave the course with sharper observation skills, stronger scientific thinking, and a deeper appreciation for how science brings mysteries to light.
