The crime scene investigation specialist minor (CSIS) provides a specialization that differentiates a student academically. The minor is open to students having an interest in the technical aspects of crime scene investigation. Although the minor is open to students in other Alfred State College baccalaureate programs it may satisfy a gap identified by the forensic science technology and criminal justice programs for students wishing to specialize in the CSI aspects.
