The B.Sc. in Medical Laboratory Technology (MLT) is a 3-year undergraduate program that focuses on the study and practice of laboratory procedures used in diagnosing diseases. This course trains students to analyze biological samples such as blood, urine, and tissue samples to help doctors in disease detection, treatment, and prevention. It covers a wide range of topics like clinical biochemistry, microbiology, hematology, immunology, pathology, and blood banking.
The curriculum combines theoretical learning with hands-on laboratory experience, ensuring students gain practical knowledge in conducting various diagnostic tests, using laboratory instruments, and understanding laboratory safety protocols. Students are also trained in the ethical and legal aspects of laboratory practices, infection control, and quality assurance. After completing the program, graduates can work as medical laboratory technologists, laboratory technicians, quality control officers, or researchers in hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, research institutions, and medical equipment companies. The demand for skilled MLT professionals is growing, especially with the advancement of medical technology and the increased need for diagnostic services.
