Transfusion Services Minor Checklist The Clinical Lab Science/Medical Technology (CLS/MT) degree is the baccalaureate degree at Salisbury University that qualifies graduates to take national certification examinations and to practice in many different laboratory settings, including clinical and medical laboratories. The traditional CLS/MT 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 following graduation 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, because their program of study requires education and practical experience in all these areas. Frequently, we are contacted by students outside the major who just want to take courses within one of the areas noted above. Earning a minor would allow a student to do this and to gain recognition for this study formally on their transcript. There are now four new minors that would enable you to do that. Earning a minor is always an advantage in the job market or for graduate and/or professional schools. Furthermore, a minor may be extremely helpful to students in other majors, especially in this slower economic period. A minor in a discipline of Clinical Laboratory Science would allow students to complete a didactic phase of study in a specific discipline such as clinical microbiology, with this recognition posted on a transcript. In order to hold a space in classes, students who wish to pursue a minor must be approved. See each checklist for the approval form. |
