The Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Technology (BS MLT) is a four-year undergraduate program designed to train students in the clinical laboratory sciences essential for diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases. The curriculum combines theoretical knowledge with practical skills in subjects such as clinical biochemistry, microbiology, hematology, histopathology, immunology, molecular biology, and blood banking. Students learn to operate and maintain laboratory equipment, conduct various diagnostic tests, and ensure quality control in medical laboratories. Through classroom instruction, laboratory training, and clinical internships, graduates are prepared to work as medical laboratory technologists in hospitals, diagnostic centers, research institutions, and public health laboratories.
