    Description
    This interactive course provides an introduction to the science of fingerprint pattern recognition, comparison and identification. Focus is on fingerprints of record, with an emphasis on the history and application of science to fingerprints and their role in the forensic domain. Students participate in recording, developing, and comparing fingerprints, and are exposed to crime scene type latent prints and learn basic development techniques. Field trips to local crime labs to observe forensic science/fingerprint unit organization and operation may be required.
