Laboratory Technology, a degree program at the Jackson County Campus,
prepares students for employment in hospital laboratories, clinics,
doctors' offices and industrial laboratories. Students are trained to
work in five major areas of the laboratory: blood bank, chemistry,
hematology, urinalysis/immunology, and microbiology. MLTs perform
tests to determine the absence, presence, extent and causes of
diseases. These tests range from the most routine urinalysis to the
most complex chemistry profile. There is a critical shortage of
laboratory personnel. This makes excellent employment opportunities
for the MLT.
