Graduate Certificate in Forensic Sciences

The Graduate Certificate is meant to complement a program of study at Iowa State that leads to any graduate degree in an established academic major. It is recommended for students that wish to strengthen their interdisciplinary skills. Coursework for the Certificate is at the graduate level. Qualified undergraduates may also enroll, provided they are admitted to the Graduate College as a certificate student for at least one semester. Iowa State does not offer a major in Forensic Sciences at either the graduate or undergraduate level, but it does have a complimentary undergraduate major in Criminal Justice. Forensics. What does the word mean Certainly, it conjures up images from the popular media, particularly from wildly successful crime dramas, such as CSI, The Practice, and Bones. But forensics is much more than just “tracking down the perp”. Broadly speaking, forensic science applies scientific theory and method to legal problems. Forensic science is an interdisciplinary endeavor that relies on sound science from a broad array of academic fields, such as anthropology, entomology, psychology, biology, statistics, chemistry, sociology, and materials science.
