Forensic Science Minor

Suffolk's expert faculty will teach you the science behind crime fighting and give you the tools to get involved. Our interdisciplinary program will start with introductory courses in forensic biology and forensic chemistry, then move on to a variety of electives, such as genetics, criminal law, forensic psychology, pharmacology and toxicology, fraud examination, and more.

This minor is open to all students, but is an excellent complement to a major in another science area, criminal justice, psychology, and sociology. With this coursework, you could go on to work in a testing or crime laboratory or pursue graduate study in forensic science.
