Department Biological Sciences
College Science, Engineering & Technology
Undergraduate Degree Type(s) BS
Program Description The four-year clinical laboratory sciences & medical technology curriculum leads to the degree of Bachelor of Science in clinical laboratory sciences & medical technology. The first three years are spent at the university. The fourth year is spent at one of the affiliated hospital schools of clinical laboratory sciences/medical technology. Upon successful completion of this year, the BS degree is awarded by the university and graduates are then eligible to take a certifying examination.
Because the clinical laboratory sciences/medical technology curriculum closely parallels that of other majors, such as biology, students from other majors are encouraged to apply.
Admission Requirements Admission to Major is required for enrollment in junior and senior level courses, and includes completion of pre-requisite courses as well as:
  • a minimum of 32 earned semester credit hours.
  • a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00 (C).
Application forms for admission are available in the College Advising Center, Trafton C-125.
Other Requirements Students should contact the Department of Clinical Laboratory Sciences & Medical Technology early in their college career for admission to the program, for academic and career counseling, and for information on the process and standards for admission to the professional curriculum, including registration procedures. Because enrollment in the fourth year is limited by the size of classes in the affiliated hospital schools, admission to the program does not ensure admission to the fourth year of the curriculum. Admission into the fourth year hospital clinical internship is competitive.
