The Marshall University Forensic Science Center is dedicated to providing the highest quality forensic analysis for the promotion of truth and justice throughout our community, state, and nation.

We have a unique relationship with the West Virginia State Police as the first university to partner with a state crime laboratory on developing and maintaining a CODIS database. Through our Master of Science degree program our students have access to state of the art equipment, as well as a top notch faculty. We employ one of the most skilled DNA workforces in the country, consisting almost entirely of our Forensic Science graduates.
