This certificate provides students with the technical and professional knowledge to
prepare for a career in fire and arson investigation. Part detective, scientist, engineer,
and law enforcer, the investigator represents the many different facets of both fire
science and criminal justice. An arson investigator tries to determine who is
responsible for setting a fire; a fire investigator attempts to determine the cause and
origin of a fire. This certificate curriculum has been designed to be compatible with
industry standards and prepares the student for the challenges he or she may face in
investigations and court settings.
This certificate is a career program and may not readily transfer to four year colleges/universities (except in special cases.)
