High school students spend seven weeks at the Forensic Sciences Mentoring Institute (FMI), a program of the Fredric Rieders Family Foundation, researching and solving a case using genuine forensic procedures and instruments. Since its inception in 1994, the FMI program has been provided on an annual basis.

Under the supervision of forensic professionals, students will evaluate crime scene evidence from homicide, sexual assault, and drug trafficking investigations. They will collaborate as part of a team to solve a realistic crime scene by acquiring, testing, and evaluating evidence.

Students in the FMI program will learn in three distinct forensic science fields through interactive, hands-on experiences utilizing the same cutting-edge apparatus and procedures utilized in the world’s best forensic laboratories:

Forensic Biology is concerned with the identification of bodily fluids such as blood, sperm, and saliva from evidence. This is followed by DNA analysis, which is used to determine the origin of a biological material.

Eligibility:

  • Currently enrolled in high school
  • Sixteen years of age or older by June 26th, 2023 (no exceptions – this is required for insurance compliance)
  • Completion or evidence of enrollment in algebra and either biology or chemistry with passing grades (see forensic area specific requirements within application)
  • Availability throughout the duration of the program (weekdays from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm)
