    Science and Realism In the course of this semester, we have read a number of stories that have one common element: science. In most of the stories, the science was hypothetical, but accurate, for the time and usually played an important part in the story. Today we know that most of these ideas range from simply being wrong to flat out impossible. When I say science I am referring to the sciences that are of a physical nature such as biology, chemistry, and physics. Psychology is also a science

    I am applying to study Forensic Science because I have always been interested in crime, whether that be in real life or on television. I am very aware that Forensic Science is not like how it is portrayed by television or media; however this has not curbed my enthusiasm and interest in how crimes are solved and how a crime scene is analysed. I am intrigued by the procedures that various forensic specialisms undertake to collect and analyse evidence. I am particularly interested in Forensic Archaeology

    Introduction What does a Forensic Science Technician actually do? If you guessed ‘the things they do on TV’, you’re partially right. However, it’s much more than that. What they show on TV, it’s more imaginative rather than reality. The purpose of this paper is to inform you on what being a Forensic Science Technician actually means. Another purpose of this paper is to reflect on my test results from the Multiple Intelligence test, the Myer-Briggs test, and the Careers Navigator assessment. Finally

    Criminal investigators use forensics science to answer the who, what, why, how, when, and where factors in a crime investigation. It uses scientific methods to describe, infer, and reconstruct events from the small pieces of evidence found during a proper investigation. Scientists and law enforcement have used forensics for over 120 years, but especially more in the twentieth century: major countries like the United States, France, and the United Kingdom have been using forensics as a mean of identifying

This course appeals to me as it offers variety; it is closely related to biology, chemistry and physics which would allow me to gain a broader education within the area of science. Through immense research into the course and careers in forensics I know

    I believe that science fiction has played a vital role in my life here on Earth. Science Fiction isn’t just a genre of robots and electronics, it is much deeper than that, its base contains predictions of the future for our society as a whole and how technology will play a bigger and brighter in the up and coming time frames. Without this particular category of literature, who knows where the Earth would be right now. Most people automatically think of science fiction as a futuristic category

    Forensic science is the use of different sciences such as physics, chemistry, biology, and computer science. Forensic science helps law enforcement obtain a better understanding of how different types of evidence, such as blood splatter, fingerprints, and shell casings, found at the crime scene can play a role in the investigation (Forensic Sciences. National Institute of Justice). Forensic science is very important in the criminal justice system by backing up information based on science through
