Louisiana Tech’s program in Medical Laboratory Science is designed for students preparing
for careers as clinical specialists who design, perform, evaluate, and supervise biological,
chemical, and other clinically related tests.
Educational programs in this major include three years of pre-professional work on
the Tech campus, and the senior year is a clinical internship. This clinical internship
is completed in one of four traditional hospital-based NAACLS-accredited clinical
programs or in one of Louisiana Tech’s two affiliated hospital systems. Admission
is competitive for the clinical internship phase.
