Do you have to get a Master's Degree to be a forensic scientist?-Bill W.Good question Bill, thanks. No, actually you do not need a Master's Degree to be a forensic scientist. You are allowed to have one and it certainly wouldn't hurt if you did have one. To be a technical leader (like a supervisor) in DNA Analysis, you are required to have a Master's Degree...but that is the only instance. For much more information on education requirements and options, please check out the Forensic Science Resource Education section. |

Are you really a forensic scientist and do you really answer questions from readers?-Kim First off Kim, thanks for your questions. Secondly, yes I really am a forensic scientist (officially my title is Senior Criminalist). And, lastly, I really do answer questions from readers - as my answers above actually answered this question. Thanks again and keep the questions coming. |
