What will I learn?
This concise Forensic Entomology Course gives you practical skills to interpret insect evidence at death scenes, estimate PMI using development data and thermal models, and recognize key taxa and succession patterns. Learn correct sampling, preservation, and documentation, then turn findings into clear, defensible reports that communicate methods, uncertainty, and conclusions for investigative and legal settings.
