Class Overview:

 Forensic Science is an engaging course that explores how science is applied to solving crimes and supporting the justice system. Students learn how principles from chemistry, biology, and physics are used in real-world criminal and civil investigations.

 Throughout the course, students will:

• Build a strong foundation in scientific inquiry and critical thinking aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
  
  

• Explore the methods and techniques used by forensic scientists to investigate and analyze evidence.
  
  

• Apply NGSS Crosscutting Concepts, connecting ideas across science and engineering disciplines to better understand how investigations are conducted.
  
  

This course provides hands-on learning experiences that prepare students to think like scientists, problem-solvers, and future professionals in the fields of forensic science and criminal justice.
