Imagine using scientific methods, information and technology to determine the facts in a search for truth. A career as a forensic scientist can place you in the forefront of crime scene investigations. 


As a forensic science major at The University of Findlay, you will learn techniques involving:


  • DNA

  • Firearms identification

  • Latent prints

  • Forensic biology

  • Trace evidence

  • Chemistry

  • ​Crime scene investigation​




The forensic science major was created following the guidelines
established by the United States Department of Justice, Technical Working Group on Education and Training in Forensic Science (TWGED) and the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (AAFS).


Students must also take courses in speech, communication, argumentation and debate as well because they will likely be required someday to present and defend their work in criminal trial courtrooms.
