What is the Center for Integrity in Forensic Sciences?

Its educational and service goals span legislation, all facets of the judicial system, and experiential education of tomorrow's lawyers and scientists. Its innovative approach allows law students and both undergraduate and graduate students in the sciences to work collaboratively, expanding the knowledge and competency of students across that broad spectrum.
