Minors in Medical Laboratory Science
If space is available, students may choose to earn a minor in
one of the content areas in medical lab science. The
traditional MLS baccalaureate degree has a classroom component
completed on campus and a clinical component (internship)
completed at a variety of off campus laboratories in the area.
Graduates who earn national certification as generalists are
qualified to practice in many aspects of laboratory
medicine including hematology, immunology, clinical
biochemistry, clinical microbiology, transfusion services/blood
banking and urine/body fluid analysis. A minor in a
discipline of Medical Laboratory Science would allow students to
complete the on-campus classes in a specific discipline such as
clinical microbiology, with this recognition posted on a
transcript.
Students majoring in MLS are given the first seats in any
course. Students who wish to pursue a minor may apply for any
remaining slots. In order to hold a space in classes, students
who wish to pursue a minor must apply and be approved. See each
checklist for complete information and the application form.
