Majoring in Medical Laboratory Technology
Selecting medical laboratory technology as a major is open to all SSC students and can be accomplished through an advisor just like any other SSC major field of study. However, formal admission to the program is a more rigorous and competitive process. See the PDF copy of course requirements for more information on the admissions process and criteria.
