1 SCHOOL OF NATURAL SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY Degree: BACHELOR OF SCIENCE Credits: 5 CURRICULUM Since: August 08 Program: MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY Description: The Bachelor of Science with a Major in Medical Technology is targeted to attract students interested in studying a career that will prepare them to help in the solution of health problems. Physicians base about 70 percent of their diagnosis and treatment decisions on the results of laboratory testing. Graduates from this program will be prepared to work in the clinical laboratories in hospitals and medical centers; pharmaceutical industry in quality control and microbiology labs, research and biotechnology; government crime labs, accreditation offices, environmental technology and lab information systems; humanitarian work in the Peace Corps, Project Hope and medical missionary workers. Many medical technology degree graduates assume positions as laboratory directors and healthcare supervisors.

The student must maintain a minimum.75 grade point average. Students must have passed with a grade of C the following courses: Biology I and II, Human Biology I and II, Microbiology, Immunology, Cellular Biology or Biochemistry, General Chemistry I and II, Analytical Chemistry, Pre-calculus, Calculus I, Physics I and II and Organic Chemistry I y II. Students must have a clean record. Students must submit the required documentation. Students will be responsible for dates and meetings which shall participate for admission to the professional phase. Oral interview and an essay to be performed during the evaluation process. Three letters of recommendation from science and/or math professors. Students will be admitted to the professional stage if they meet the pre-requirements and subject to the assessment of the Evaluation Committee of the School of Natural Science and Technology. Whether a student meets the requirements does not guarantee admission to the program. Students not admitted to the professional phase, have the option of completing a degree in Biology.
