Forensic Entomology

7 Hours

This course will cover the application of insect information in a court of law and focus on those insects associated with the natural or suspicious death of a human (e.g., homicide, suicide or non-witnessed death) or non-human animal (e.g., pouching, non-witnessed death of an endangered or protected wildlife species). Participants will acquire a working knowledge of forensic entomology and its application in providing another valuable piece to the investigative puzzle of the death scene.
