The Division of Medical Technology provides professional preparation for a career in medical technology, which is also called clinical laboratory science. This health profession is responsible for clinical laboratory analyses, including quantitative, qualitative and morphological measurements which assist the physician in clinical diagnosis and treatment.
Completion of the medical technology major, accredited by the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences, qualifies the student for various National Registry examinations.
Post-baccalaureate students who meet certain minimum requirements may apply for the professional training to become M.T. certification eligible. Students in this category should contact the Medical Technology Program Office for more information.
