Body Search: Dr. Melbye led his students into a densely wooded area in Texas, where he buried a teaching skeleton in a shallow grave just 3 months earlier, enabling him to create a realistic situation for teaching his students proper search and recovery techniques.


Students working in the forensic lab: Some of the graduate and undergraduate students at Texas State University , enrolled in "Forensic Techniques and Identification" are shown here completing case analysis on skeletal remains, in the forensic lab which is located at the Center for Archaeological Studies.

The Texas State University MAES Science Extravaganza™: The Texas State University MAES Science Extravaganza™ is a full day event of hands-on interactive engineering and science presentations designed to give students a unique opportunity to learn about various fields in a fun and educational environment.

Dr. Melbye, three of his graduate students from TSU, and fellow diplomate, Dr. Ubelaker, at the AAFS 57th Annual Meeting in New Orleans , February 2005.
