Forensic Science Department

How do you solve a murder without a body? How do you prove you’re innocent when you look guilty as sin? What discipline is responsible for more “Aha!” moments that any other? Forensics — the recognition, collection, identification, and interpretation of physical evidence and the application of science and technology to provide objective facts for criminal or civil court cases. If you’re interested in forensics, there’s no more prestigious place to earn your degree than the world-renowned Henry C. Lee College.
