Here's a good website to check out: http://www.forensicdna.com/index.htm There are lots of different careers in Forensic Science. Most (if not all) require at least a bachelors degree in a hard science, and many need a masters or doctorate degree. Better to have an idea first of what specialization you'd like to have, and then see what education is required to acquire that job. Hope this helps! :)...(Answered by chanju84)

yes, keep up with your sciences! With some forensic science degrees, a biology minor is permitted/recommended. Don't neglect your chemistry courses, please! Some kinesiology might be required, but on the whole, DNA, fingerprinting, anthropology, logic/reasoning, etc. courses are needed (don't worry about these, just take these in lieu of another elective; summer sessions will help with getting these out of the way). Get on the web, and search for universities that offer forensic science degrees. Michigan has an awesome program, and so do Sam Houston State University and UTSA (University of Texas at San Antonio, in Texas. ...(Answered by jojo_violist_08)
