AMSE.csi

Everybody loves a mystery. Come investigate, explore, and do experiments by conducting many hands-on forensic science tests on evidence found at the ‘crime scene’. You will directly experience both real-life applications of science and the joys of scientific explorations in this week long investigation of ‘who did it?’ at the AMSE.csi (crime scene investigation).
