Bachelor’s Degree Program in Medical Laboratory Sciences (BMLSc)

Goals

The Department of Medical Laboratory Sciences primarily trains its students for work in academic and medical research. A significant portion of the curriculum is dedicated to teaching and developing laboratory work skills.

General Description

The Bachelors of Science in Medical Laboratory Sciences is based on interdisciplinary studies in the natural and medical sciences and the development of strong laboratory skills for a broad range of applications. This approach is critical because with the advancement of lab equipment and technologies, technicians must have the flexibility and breadth of experience to adapt to a constantly evolving work environment. Students gain extensive practical experience in highly equipped multi-purpose ("smart") laboratories, which aid students in acquiring necessary skills and laboratory methodology. Students study advanced methods in biochemistry, microbiology, virology, immunology, hematology, genetic engineering, molecular biology and more.

The program consists of seven academic semesters taken over the course of three years, plus a three-month long professional internship.
