Overview

The Medical Laboratory Sciences degree programme is offered at the University of Nebraska Medical Center

Key Facts

These professionals work behind-the-scenes with blood, tissue, and body fluid samples to perform diagnostic tests necessary for patient care and research. Specimen diagnostic testing is performed in numerous clinical laboratory areas such as immunohematology (blood bank), chemistry, hematology, molecular diagnostics, flow cytometry, microbiology, and urinalysis. Whether Medical Laboratory Scientists are working in hospitals, forensic laboratories, veterinary clinics, or research facilities, their role remains the same - to provide foundational results that guide the rest of their team.

As a member of a laboratory environment, you can choose to work in all areas or instead specialize in one of several sections such as chemistry, transfusion medicine, hematology, immunology, and microbiology. While you will not typically work with patients, you may explore opportunities to work with patients drawing blood samples or in other roles exploring product development, marketing, sales, and quality assurance.
