The 24 student workstations are comprised of 12 ten-print stations and 12 latent print stations. In addition there are three live-scan devices for electronically capturing ten-prints. The teaching station comprises both a ten-print and latent workstation. An IBIS system is also available for the analysis of bullets and bullet casings. The lab was made possible by a generous gift from Cogent and Mr. Ming Hsieh.
