FRSC 119 - Murder to Trial
Credits: Three (3)
This course introduces students to the interrelationship between the investigation of a crime, the process of forensic evidence, and the use of that evidence at trial. Students will be taken to a mock crime scene where they will learn through experience as they collect evidence they will process in the lab and conclude with a mock trial.
General Education Area: Natural Science
Cross-listed: CRIM-119

FRSC 151 - Introduction to Forensic Science
Credits: Four (4)
Introductory course that highlights all aspects of forensics as an umbrella of the work associated in the forensic process. The course will introduce topics such as ethics, observing, and obtaining physical evidence, as well as a survey of the techniques and instrumentation (chromatography, spectrophotometry, mass spectrometry, atomic absorption spectrophotometry, scanning electron microscopy, immunoassay techniques, polymerase chain reaction, spatter patterns, digital imaging, document examining, and electronic data collection and storage) used in the analysis of physical evidence (organic and inorganic materials, soil, glass, body fluids, hair, fibers, paint, DNA, bloodstains and patterns, arson evidence, fingerprints, explosive residue, tool marks, documents, and computer and internet evidence).
