Histotechnologists perform a variety of diagnostic and research procedures in the anatomic sciences. Basic histologic techniques involve the processing and staining of tissue specimens that have been removed from humans or animals by biopsy or autopsy. Advanced techniques involve the use of the electron microscope, immunofluorescence microscopy, and molecular pathology.

Learn

Students may be accepted into the histotechnology specialization after completing the required science, mathematics and clinical laboratory science courses. University general education requirements must also be met. After completion of the requirements for graduation, the student can apply to either William Beaumont Hospital or the DMC for clinical training.

Opportunities

Individuals interested in being a histotechnologist need to have patience, precision, and fine manual dexterity. Patient contact is limited and most are employed in the anatomic pathology department of hospitals. 

This is a designated STEM program (see  OPT Extension ).
