Major Courses
This program combines a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with a concentration in Autopsy Specialist training.
All requirements for the BS degree are completed within the traditional four academic years, but students in this program will also complete courses designed to prepare them for careers as autopsy specialists and forensic investigators.
A minimum GPA of 3.0 at the end of the student’s sophomore year is required in order to enter into the practicum courses of the junior year.
