Professional Program in
Clinical Laboratory Science
Program Mission
The Clinical laboratory science Program provides graduates with the technical
and administrative skills required for the effective delivery of health care
services consistent with the practices and standards of Clinical Laboratory
Sciences. Graduates are prepared and qualified to perform evaluations of testing
techniques, procedures, and personnel; to perform analytical testing of any body
sample; and to resolve discrepancies with the interpretation of diagnostic
laboratory patient data. Graduates also possess the capabilities needed for
public education, as well as for planning and developing clinical laboratory
facilities that meet the standards of accrediting governmental regulatory
agencies.
