Overview In Fall of 2004, IUPUI began the first forensic science degree program in Indiana. Completion of this program leads to the Bachelor of Science degree in Forensic and Investigative Sciences. All students take a core of science classes and university requirements. Then each student chooses one of the current six concentrations: Chemistry, Biology, Computer forensics, Criminal Justice, Psychology, Environmental Science and Health Investigations.
The program also includes courses in imaging and photography, law and forensic science, and laboratory courses in forensic chemistry and biology as well as an opportunity to do an internship at a crime laboratory. Graduates of the program will be able to seek employment in crime labs, scientific industries, environmental agencies and federal or local law enforcement.
