When it comes to accreditation as one of the top Forensic Science programs in North America, the gold standard of endorsement comes from the Colorado-based American Academy of Forensic Sciences' Forensic Education Programs Accreditation Commission (FEPAC).
Among its signature academic programs, Ontario Tech University's Forensic Science program has earned a full five-year renewal of its FEPAC accreditation, a distinction first granted to the university's Faculty of Science in 2014.
"Earning this recognition from FEPAC speaks to the remarkable quality and substance of all that Ontario Tech University offers in the realm of forensics," says Greg Crawford, PhD, Dean, Faculty of Science. "FEPAC accreditation confirms our students graduate with a competitive advantage in the marketplace. They have access to the finest learning infrastructure available, including our Crime Scene House on the Windfields Farm lands. Coupled with our specializations in Forensic Biology, Forensic Chemistry, and Forensic Physics, students have multiple reasons to consider Ontario Tech as the best choice for a Forensic Science education."
