What courses should I take in high school to prepare for a career in forensic science?
A background in math and sciences including biology, chemistry, and physics will be helpful. A composition or writing course may also be helpful. A solid education will enable you to continue your studies in college and prepare you for a career in one of the many different forensic science fields. You may also want to consider doing an internship in a crime laboratory to gain experience in the forensic application of science and to determine if forensic science is right for you. Contact the laboratory you are interested in working for to find out further details. Unfortunately, there is no official listing for such opportunities.
