The SU Forensic Science Camp is a day camp designed to give high school students entering 10th-12th grade the opportunity to perform a variety of forensic investigations designed to teach basic principles and to use these techniques to study a crime scene.
We will spend the majority of our time in crime scenes and laboratories so students can truly experience what it is like to be a forensic scientist.
The Forensic Science Camp will simultaneously emphasize the fundamental concepts of forensic science (evidence collection and documentation, fingerprint collection and analysis, shoe print and tire impressions, ballistics, serology, and controlled substances) and how those concepts are used to solve criminal cases.
We will emphasize safe and proper laboratory analysis and interpretation of results as the primary method of instruction.
