On Tuesday, March 7th 2017 85 SEAHEC Future Health Leaders and their chaperones, representing six high schools, attended the Grand Canyon University’s (GCU) Forensic Science Day in Phoenix Arizona. At the event, students were able to explore the diverse field of forensic science as well as career options within the field.In the morning, students had the opportunity to tour GCU’s cadaver labs, as well as learn from a variety of informational booths. These included activities and demonstrations such as finger printing, handwriting analysis, and blood spatter reconstruction. Students later had the opportunity to hear from experts in the field speak about their work with crime scene investigations, firearms, forensic art and more. The event closed with a live police dog demonstration, lunch, and information about GCU’s STEM programs.
