The CFSRE offers forensic science internships at its location in Willow Grove, PA and we are accepting applications. The internship program is designed to provide students and recent graduates with an opportunity to receive hands-on learning by performing mock casework and validation studies. This includes experience working under chain of custody, data analysis, report writing, and testimony. This internship helps develop the laboratory, management, and communication skills needed to prepare students for a career in forensic science.

Each applicant shall submit a recent CV/resume, an unofficial transcript, one academic or professional reference, and one essay (one page maximum).
