Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Science (STEM)

Program Overview

Medical technologists conduct medical tests and procedures in hematology, clinical chemistry, molecular diagnostics, microbiology, parasitology, blood banking, urinalysis and other areas. They deliver precise, reliable results to physicians to ensure correct diagnoses and appropriate treatments.

The University of Toledo’s accredited medical technology program combines biology, chemistry, physics and math courses. It prepares students for certification as medical technologists.

Undergraduates complete three years of basic science and pre-clinical course work. They apply in the fall of their junior years to the clinical portion of the program. Acceptance into the clinical year is competitive.

Accepted students are guaranteed a clinical externship during their fourth years.

This real-world experience in a hospital gives students invaluable, hands-on training in laboratory diagnostic procedures.

Highlights

  • Personal attention. Our program is small. Undergrads get individual attention in classes and labs, especially during their fourth years.
  • 100% job placement. UToledo medical technology grads enter high-paying careers straight out of UToledo.
  • State-of-the-art, on-campus lab. Medical technology majors train on specialized equipment.
  • Externships. UToledo students work with med techs in ProMedica (a health-care system in northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan), the University of Toledo Medical Center and affiliated clinical laboratories.
  • Fully accredited program through the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences.
  • Practicing faculty. During their clinical years, students learn from working, medical scientists with years of clinical experience.
