When the job title “forensic science technician” comes to mind, many people think of crime shows like NCIS and CSI, which showcase a broad spectrum of this that the job is, but it's not as easy as it seems. When I was a kid I always admired the character Abby on NCIS, Abby is the forensic scientist on the show. “Forensic science technicians perform chemical, biological, and physical analyzes on evidence collected from crime scenes (“Forensic Science Technicians.” Employment Outlook Handbook).” A forensic science technician must complete many years of training, but through this hard work they are able to perform all types of different tasks, work in multiple environments, and use many different skills, tools, and technologies. The first thing that must be achieved in becoming a forensic science technician is school. The process of learning to become a forensic scientist begins in high school. While in high school, it's best to take a lot of natural science classes along with math and English classes. To become a forensic science technician it is also best to obtain a bachelor's degree in chemistry, physics, biology and forensic technology ("Forensic Science Technicians". Wiscareers). Some jobs in this field may not require all four degrees; however, they may pay for an individual to return to college to obtain a greater education. On-the-job training is needed during the final years of college, although you don't need a lot of on-the-job training, but a moderate amount is needed before you can move on ("Forensic Science Technicians." Occupational Outlook Handbook ). After on-the-job training, it will take less time and it will be easier to start your new career. A forensic scientist is the person who collects DNA and other evidence… middle of the paper… many years of education, but will enable me to perform various tasks using many different tools, technologies and skills. In pursuing this career I hope to have many great experiences, create great memories, and hopefully change many people's worlds in a positive way. Works Cited "Forensic Science Technicians".
