Bachelor of Science Degree Program

医疗技术人员 (also known as clinical laboratory scientists) develop, perform and supervise laboratory testing that is used to diagnose and treat disease and to provide vital data for research studies. Graduates of this program are eligible to apply for New York State licensure as a Clinical Laboratory Technologist. Graduates are eligible to sit for the national certifying examination given by the Board of Certification of the American Society of Clinical Pathologists and other certifying agencies.

毕业后, many medical technologists work in hospital or physicians' office laboratories conducting a wide range of laboratory measurements from simple blood tests to complex analyses for cancer, 艾滋病, 病毒, bone marrow abnormalities, therapeutic drug monitoring, infectious disease and molecular diagnoses.

Graduates are also prepared for careers that research and develop products used to prevent and treat human disease. They also work in academic settings with medical scientists performing experiments as part of research studies, or in industrial laboratories producing vaccines and other drugs.

While a degree in medical technology provides immediate career opportunities after graduation, it is also a good foundation for advanced degrees in medicine or science, or for a career in other medically related fields such as physician's assistant.

We encourage prospective students to visit a clinical laboratory near you, tour the lab at 推荐最近最火的赌博软件, or call the Clinical Laboratory Science Department to discuss career options.

The Program accepts 20 students each year.
