B.S. in Biomedical Technology

Students pursuing the Biomedical Technology degree learn basic and applied biomedical and advanced sciences which allow them to perform and evaluate test results in a research or pharmaceutical setting. The 134-credit Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Technology prepares students for career positions in the bioscience industry (biotechnology, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, life systems, project leadership or forensic pathology). Biomedical Technology students take a varied group of courses that allow them to perform a research project either on the campus or with another professional laboratory site of their choosing. Students take course pre-requisites that ready them for entry into professional schools of medicine, osteopathy, dentistry or pursue other doctoral degree routes.

Students can pursue the undergraduate degree program part-time or full-time. The Department of Biomedical Sciences integrates didactic courses taught at the University with simulated laboratories along with clinical courses taught at an approved clinical affiliate laboratory. Through each degree program option, university-based courses are reinforced in the professional laboratory setting. Students are exposed to state-of-the-art instrumentation and are educated by the highly qualified faculty to become entry-level laboratory professionals with comprehensive competency evaluated skills for entry into a laboratory career profession.
