The University of Ontario Institute of Technology (OUIT) in Oshawa, Ontario holds an annual “Crime Scene Science Camp” for teenagers.
From their website:
Forensic Science is an emerging interdisciplinary area of science and involves the use of scientific principles to analyze evidence for legal purposes. The UOIT Crime Scene Science Camp provides high school students, in Grades 7-12, with the opportunity to participate in an interactive and exciting learning environment which focuses on the popular field of forensic science.
They even have their own “Crime Scene House” where mock crimes have been staged to give a realistic crime scene investigation experience. Â Once evidence has been properly collected and “bagged,” evidence is sent to OUIT’s state-of-the-art forensic lab for analysis.
Sorry grown-ups, this camp experience is exclusively for students in Grades 7 through 12.
The registration deadline for 2011 summer camps is June 10. Â Read about the Crime Scene Summer Camp and forensic science programs at Canadian universities in The Toronto Star.
UPDATE: Although their previous site still works and is updated for 2011, there is another website for the 2011 camp that also appears to be active.
