Every healthcare facility that has a laboratory needs Medical Laboratory Science professionals to run tests of all kinds to help diagnose patients and to work with doctors to develop treatment strategies that will most benefit those patients. In this degree option, students complete three years of coursework at SAU before applying for entrance positions in clinical training programs. Once those 12-18 month programs are completed successfully, a Bachelor\u2019s degree in chemistry can be awarded from SAU.
