Trent University DNA Forensic Science Camp March 11, 2015 Dear Sir or Madam: I am writing to you in the hopes of reaching out to students about the exciting opportunities academic camps possess. Trent University's DNA Forensic Science Camp is a summer camp that is held on the Trent University campus in Peterborough, ON, and is designed for students ages 13-18 with a keen interest in science, and the ever growing field of forensics. The Forensic Science Camp aims to stimulate an interest in the sciences by combining the excitement of crime scene investigation and DNA forensics with the unique educational opportunity to learn from practicing experts. Campers will hear first-hand from practitioners in fields such as Bloodstain Pattern Analysis, Forensic Entomology, Law Enforcement, Wildlife Genetics, DNA Forensics, as well as participate in fun educational activities. Last year, students from across Canada enjoyed our camp and we look forward to making the camp an even bigger success this year with new sessions, scenarios, and guest speakers.
