專業(yè)概況
在這里學(xué)什么？
The Bachelor of Science in Forensic Chemistry at St. Edward’s University prepares you for careers that as depicted in popular TV dramas like CSI and NCIS focus on the chemical analysis of substances relevant to the solving of crimes.
You’ll receive a thorough grounding in chemistry, forensics and criminal justice. You’ll learn to microscopically examine a range of crime scene evidence that might, for instance, confirm a suspect’s connection to a crime. You’ll analyze blood and tissue samples to identify DNA or run toxicology screens. You may also verify the chemical composition of drugs taken as evidence.
- Experiential learning is emphasized
- Undertake at least three research courses
- Gain experience from student-faculty research groups
- Produce professional-level work
- Benefit from open lab environments in the John Brooks Williams Natural Sciences Center
- Have access to state-of-the-art instrumentation for innovative and collaborative research
- Join one of the best-equipped, small-college natural science programs in the country.
The Forensic Chemistry major prepares students for entry or graduate programs. Close interaction with faculty at St. Edward’s University and time spent in classes, labs, field work, advising sessions and program events allows you to learn more about options for careers and graduate work. With a BS in Forensic Chemistry, graduates may work with private labs, police departments, coroner’s offices or fire departments, examining evidence related to crimes. They may also work with bomb squads, in the military, or at national agencies like the FBI or CIA. Some forensic chemists become specialists in certain kinds of identification, such as chemicals associated with explosives or toxic substances.
Major Requirements: The Bachelor of Science with a major in Forensic Chemistry requires 70 hours of major courses, which include a combination of introductory coursework, developmental chemistry, labs and research methods.
General Education Requirements: The Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Forensic Chemistry requires 57 hours of general education requirement courses that students complete over four years in addition to their major courses and electives.
A few examples of courses students in this major take:
Crime Scene Investigation – Examine, learn, understand and employ the techniques of crime scene investigation. The objective is to teach the fundamentals of crime scene investigation. Students should be able to assess any crime scene and determine proper procedures
Instrumental Analysis – A study of some of the modern instrumental methods including atomic and molecular spectroscopy, analytical separations, mass spectrometry, magnetic resonance spectrometry, and other salient techniques.
Forensic Chemistry – Major facets of forensic analytical chemistry will be covered, including drug analysis, forensic toxicology, trace analysis, and arson and DNA typing. The use of Bayesian probability in the evaluation of guilt and innocence will also be covered. Real-world case studies will be used to illustrate the application of these principles.
