    Fingerprint lifting, blood typing, hair, fiber, soil and food analysis are just some of the criminalistics that will be introduced! You’ll learn everything about fundamental but nifty techniques that help CSI investigators sniff out clues and identify the perpetrator, such as titration, chromatography, spectroscopy, DNA electrophoresis. But wait, there’s more! Did you know that forensic scientists can determine a person’s age by analyzing their bones? You’ll explore the fascinating world of forensic anthropology and learn how to estimate the age and gender of skeletal remains—just like a real-life bone detective.

    Your skills will be put to the test as you tackle thrilling crime scenarios, from mysterious burglaries to dastardly poisonings. You’ll work in teams to collect and analyze evidence, follow leads, and catch the culprit before they strike again!

    So, if you’re ready to unlock the secrets of forensics and become the ultimate crime-solving superstar, join us in “CSI @CTY ” and prepare for the adventure of a lifetime! Because with a little chemistry know-how, anything is possible!

    Learning Objectives:

    • Collect, handle and analyze different types (fingerprints, blood, DNA, fibers, glass, bullets, etc) of evidence
    • Identify, perform and report scientifically, analytical chemistry techniques 
    • Write a forensics report using data to support findings reached after reviewing the available evidence.
    • Understand chemistry topics needed for the proposed forensic skills

    Foundations of Psychology

    • In Person/On Campus

    Can you measure happiness or anger? How do brain functions, our cognition, the environment and our personality interact to shape who we are? Can you gain all this knowledge in three weeks? Foundations of Psychology gives students the opportunity to establish connections between factors that determine our behavior and wellbeing. Students learn how to conduct research and gather data, in order to measure emotions, behaviors, and cognition. A holistic approach to human behavior is utilized, combining the understanding of how the brain, hormones and genetics influence behaviors, along with the impact of the environment.  Experimentation, hands-on activities and role-play, as well as debates and heated discussions will provide students with a thorough understanding of the foundations of the most important fields of Psychology. The course also focuses on abnormal psychology, one of the areas that most students are especially interested in. Mental health disorders, their symptoms, causes and management are introduced from a critical point of view.

    Learning Objectives 

    • Demonstrate knowledge on research methods and biological psychology, such as brain anatomy, hormone regulation and genetics.
    • Experiment with memory and thinking games, to determine the role of cognition in behavior. 
    • Critically assess the role of the environment on development and wellbeing.
