resulting in an Associate in Science Degree in Medical
Laboratory Technology. This program prepares students for
employment in clinical laboratories, industry, and
biotechnology. The MLT Program curriculum, an integration of
classroom lectures, student laboratories, and clinical
training, fosters development of analytical and problem
solving skills required in this profession. After successful
completion of the program, students may sit for the national
exam.
This new job area is experiencing increasing demand in both

labs conducting human research. An Medical Laboratory
