Ronal Serpas Ph.D.: The rapidly advancing world of Forensic Science (e.g., Crime Scenes, DNA, Video, Digital Forensics, Crime Analysis, etc.), is advancing the potential to provide both significant evidence to assist in investigations, and to simultaneously help reduce bias. It is crucial that the intelligent collection, testing, and preserving the chain of evidence in this exploding fields is maintained.
Ronal Serpas Ph.D.: In my view and experience, the multiple career opportunities in the Criminal Justice field is akin to the other foundational career paths of our nation such as teaching and nursing. The prospects for fulfilling employment in an era where greater demands are met best with advanced educational achievement are clear and present.
