               Generally science students are thought to be preparing for entrance exams such as engineering
               (JEE) or medical (NEET). but many students in today’s time opting for science are not
               interested in any of these and are looking for something new and adventurous to opt for as
               their  career. Interestingly,  many of them are unaware about  the  wide variety  of career
               options  available in science  field.  And  in this article I  am  going to describe  HOW TO
               BECOME A FORENSIC SCIENTIST




             WHAT IS FORENSIC SCIENCE?


             It is a field where scientific methods are applied to gain evidences for criminal investigation. These
             evidences  are  presented  in  courts  and  help to  solve  crimes.  These  cases  can  be of  trafficking,
             murder, drugs etc. The work includes taking and assessing fingerprints, matching DNA samples,
             autopsy, recreating crime scenes and developing relationships between evidences and providing a
             concise and sure conclusion about the evidences found.
