Mortuary Science
Mortuary Science is the study of deceased bodies through working in funeral homes or mortuaries. Throughout ancient history, there was always one person (or more) in a local area who cared for and prepared bodies before burying or entombing.Today, almost all families use a Funeral Home or Mortuary, and these businesses are run by trained, formally educated, and licensed men and women. "Mortician" and "Funeral Director" have completely replaced the term "undertaker".

How do you embalm a dead body?
The embalming process is two steps: first embalming fluid is pumped into main vessels of the body, which in turn displace the blood. This is done at four points: the femoral arteries and the radial arteries or sometimes the carotid arteries. Next the embalmer, using a trocar - a long tube with a sharp pointed end, aspirates all of the internal organs to rid them of gasses and fluids, and replaces the abdominal cavity with embalming fluid. The cavity fluid is then aspirated and the hole that's left from the trocar is plugged up with a stopper. If the body has been autopsied, a preservative compound is used and the incisions made by the medical examiner are stitched together using a thick mortuary twine.

When you die do you keep your organs or have them removed?
Organs are typically left in place, unless the person is an organ donor. If an organ donor, machines will keep circulating blood through the body until the body is taken to a surgical suite where surgeons remove only the organs or skin that is usable, including corneas (outer film over eyeball).
Organs receive embalming fluids as it courses through the body. Therefore, organs do not decay or decompose like they would in a body left without embalming fluids.

Most mortuaries will train you themselves for this type of position. But in many states there are schools specifically designed to train you for this, training that is not as extensive as mortuary science, which is a two-year program.
