Forensics is the development of an articulable argument. There are forensic scientists (such as Forensic Industrial Hygienists), forensic psychologists, forensic plumbers, forensic engineers, forensic doctors, etc.

Essentially any profession or craft may have a situation wherein an argument or position must be developed to promote a particular idea, frequently before the "Trier of Fact" (a court, tribunal or council).

Many forensic scientists (such as Forensic Industrial Hygienists) are hired specifically to solve problems, or analyze situations to understand cause and effect. Therefore, their skill sets usually focus on analytical thought, abstract thought, imagination, resourcefulness, and parallel thinking - all of this must then be brought together with an highly developed skill of communication.
