Faculty and graduate students in the Entomology Department at UC Davis have contributed to local and national forensic investigations as well as general research and leadership in forensic entomology. The resources and services at the Bohart Museum of Entomology are also typically used in support of these activities. A minor degree program in forensic entomology is currently offered through the Department of Entomology. Professor-researcher Robert B. Kimsey is the current President-Elect of the North American Forensic Entomology Association and regularly teaches ENT 158, Forensic Entomology, which is offered during the spring quarter.
