Clinical
Laboratory Sciences Department
Formerly the Department
of Medical Technology
Clinical laboratory scientists (medical
technologists) perform analytical tests on blood and body
fluids. As vital members of the health care team, they provide
information necessary for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment
of disease. Clinical Laboratory science is a profession requiring
precise and accurate evaluation techniques and keen problem-solving
and judgment skills. Blending the basic sciences and medicine,
medical technologists may specialize in disciplines such as
hematology, immunology, microbiology, chemistry, or blood
banking. Clinical laboratory scientists may practice in
hospitals, independent commercial laboratories, clinics, physicians'
offices, blood banks, public health departments, ambulatory care
centers, industry, and other settings.
