Suffolk University Summer Forensic Science Institute 2009 Course Offerings
This weeklong course, divided between lectures and laboratory exercises, teaches the fundamental principles of the discipline through theory and practice. The laboratory exercises allow students the opportunity to experiment with how blood reacts under known conditions. This course will not make ‘instant experts’ of the students, but it does give a firm foundation on which they can build expert qualifications. Suffolk University Summer Forensic Science Institute 2009 Course Offerings
This weeklong course is offered for those students who have successfully completed the basic 40-hour course of study. The course offers the student opportunities to examine blood stained garments, to create reference patterns on fabrics and to complete scene reconstructions and complex 3-dimentional determinations. It is recommended that the students who attend have some field experience in applying what they have previously learned in the basic course to actual cases.
