With a forensic science degree with a concentration in biology, what is to be expected job-wise?
I intend to major in forensic science (biology, not chemistry), but even after quite a lot of research, I'm finding it quite difficult figuring out what exactly one does if they have biology as the concentration (for the major). I prefer biology over chemistry, so I'm just wondering if a major in forensic biology would allow me to collect and possibly analyze trace evidence such as fingerprints, blood, fibers, etc. I've also found that crime scene technicians/investigators are usually just police officers who've been working for many years and are given the job of collecting evidence, so does this mean I would first have to become an officer before I can work at crime scenes? I know this is a lot, but I'm really interested in the collecting aspect (more so trace evidence than DNA) , so would a major in forensic biology allow me to work in both a lab and at crime scenes? I also have one more question. A lot of sources claim that forensic chemists work primarily in labs, so I was wondering if this is true for forensic biologists as well. #biology #chemistry #forensics #laboratory #forensic-analysis #crime-scene-investigator #analyst #evidence
I understand that as a Forensic Biologist you are looking at DNA and the small micro details to solve a crime, however, how often does this evidence actually lead to a great discovery that solves the case?
I want to be a Forensic Biologist. I know what the job implies, but I really want to know how often the evidence actually leads to solving the crime. #professor #forensicscientist #criminologist #dnaanalysist #forensic #forensic-chemistry #forensic-analysis #biology #law-enforcement #criminal-justice

How can someone get C++certified even though he or she is not a computer science major? Will having this advantage help with interview?
I took a c++ programming class and saw the benefits of learning to write codes for certain applications. I have a better understanding of how many technology work and the programs responsible for running them. I wish to apply what I have learned to the forensic field, but I do not wish to go into cyber. #computer #technology #forensic #forensic-analysis
