What Kind of Careers Are Available in Forensics?
Careers in forensic science depend on what interests you most. As you study the curriculum, you will be better able to pinpoint a more specific job title. Although forensics has to do with the justice system, you could have a career as a crime laboratory analyst, a crime scene examiner, a medical examiner, a forensic engineer or technical assistant. Each of these jobs requires a general background in forensics. However, they vary in relation to the classes you take and the amount of college you need to complete. For example, a medical examiner often requires a medical degree, or a four-year degree in biology or chemistry and a residency with a forensic emphasis.
