DescriptionTrain to be a vital member of the health care team by becoming a laboratory technologist. You’ll build your analytical, interpretation, and critical thinking skills to report patient results to provide clinicians with the vital information they need to provide the best courses of treatment for the patient. Through classroom learning, laboratory exercises, and clinical placements, you’ll learn to perform complex analyses necessary for diagnosis and treatment in a fast-paced laboratory environment.

Prepare for entry-level medical laboratory technology practice in each of these five disciplines:

1. Clinical hematology - blood and blood disorders
2. Transfusion science - preparation and transfusion of blood
3. Clinical chemistry - determination of chemical substances in body fluids
4. Clinical microbiology - detection of bacteria
5. Clinical histotechnology - dissection and preparation of body fluids and tissues for microscopy
6. When certified, you’ll discover a wide range of career opportunities, from hospitals to private and public labs.
