Institution:

Saint Joseph's College of Maine

Subject:

Description:

The course will focus on the multi-disciplined aspects of forensic science which will include anthropology, pathology, criminalistics, entomology, chemistry, and odontology. Guest speakers, expert in the above fields, will serve as excellent role models for students interested in employment in an alternative and very challenging line of work involving general scientific fields of study. Both lecture and laboratory will provide the basis for this hands-on learning experience where, instead of a traditional examination and research paper, the students will match wits with others as "experts in their fields" in a mockcourt.
