Typical Coursework. Most forensics positions require at least an associate degree in the applied sciences. Capitalizing on high demand for forensic science programs, many colleges and community colleges are now offering two-year degree programs.
Second-degree burns, known as partial thickness burns, are deeper than first-degree burns and are characterized by blotchy white, pink or red patches which cause blisters. In order to prevent infection, the blisters of second degree burns should be left alone. Second-degree burns may require antibiotics and intravenous fluid replacement. The most severe type of burn, a third-degree, known as a full thickness burn, penetrates through all layers of the skin and may injure tissue beneath skin, so the skin is not capable of healing itself.
If your skin blisters, allow the blisters to heal. Blistering skin means you have a second-degree sunburn. You should not pop the blisters, as blisters form to help your skin heal and protect you from infection. Take extra care to protect sunburned skin while it heals. Wear clothing that covers your skin when outdoors.
