The Forensic Biology Program at Ashland University was developed to meet the needs of students interested in pursuing a career in forensic biology, the application of biological principles to law enforcement. This optional concentration in the Biology Major provides a strong background in both biology and chemistry, along with specialized upper level courses specifically applicable to forensics. Course work in the University’s Criminal Justice Department complements the science to add a foundational understanding of law enforcement. After graduation, forensic biology majors will be well prepared for either on-the-job training in a forensics laboratory or for graduate study in the area of forensics.
