Are you a high school student interested in a career in Forensics?
Do you know a high school student who might want to explore a Forensics career?
This summer camp is the perfect opportunity for someone who wants to get hands on experience with real forensic techniques. Learn how real investigators examine and process crime scenes, as well as analyze evidence and use DNA technology to try to solve a crime.

What do students do and learn about at the Academy? Here’s some of the hands on experience they’ll receive:
- Identifying and packaging evidence from a crime scene
- Looking for and identifying trace evidence
- Analyzing DNA using basic lab techniques
Students will also get the opportunity to learn first hand from real, practising professionals in the following fields:
