A
Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Science (MLS) program prepares
students to become skilled professionals who analyze patient samples, aiding in
diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases. The graduates of this
program work in hospitals, research labs, medical schools, and public health
facilities. Students in this program develop expertise in areas such as hematology, clinical
chemistry, microbiology, immunohematology, blood coagulation, histopathology,
and molecular diagnostics. The program emphasizes a wide range of laboratory tests, including analysis of blood, urine, tissues, and other body fluids (such as semen,
cerebrospinal fluid, synovial fluid, pleural, and peritoneal fluids) using
advanced instrumentation. Students also learn to establish and maintain a quality control and assurance program to ensure the accuracy and reliability of
laboratory results. Students also develop the ability to interpret laboratory findings
and participate in clinical decision-making. The graduate can work in
hospital labs, research labs, blood banks, pharmaceutical companies, and other
industries.
After the program, the student can display the following
competencies at the career entry level:
Collaborate
with diverse healthcare team members to provide patient care and perform
quality, cost-effective laboratory procedures.
Incorporate
concepts learned through classroom instruction and clinical practice to
ensure accurate, meaningful laboratory results that reflect current
standards of care.
Practice
responsibility in compliance with ethical, social, legal, and regulatory
requirements of Medical Laboratory Technology professionals.
Utilize
appropriate methods for the basic operation and troubleshooting of
laboratory instrumentation and information systems.
Recognize
the importance of continuously integrating new technologies and procedures
into clinical practice.
Demonstrate
a commitment to maintain competency and promote development through
participation in professional activities.
The Medical
Laboratory Science degree program was credit rated according to the common
credit scheme agreed at a workshop conducted by HUCOM in Aug 2013. The
curriculum design has followed the backward approach by defining the final
learning outcomes as the first step. It is mainly outcome-based, and it will be
the assessment blueprint. The curriculum addresses all 3 domains of learning:
cognitive, attitudes, and skills, to achieve the final learning outcomes. It is
divided into three phases: basic sciences, medical sciences, and clinical laboratory
practices.Medical Laboratory Practice is a unit that integrates the
basic sciences during the first year. It introduces the students to the
concepts of medical laboratory science from the outset. It will increase
the motivation and satisfaction of the students as it shows the relevance of the
course to ultimate practice. During the Years 2 & 3, students learn the
different disciplines of Medical Laboratory Science; hematology, microbiology, etc., with practical experience. They will gain a sound theory and practical
knowledge. The unit Laboratory Management integrates most of the different
disciplines of Medical Laboratory Science to give a comprehensive knowledge of
the laboratory managerial aspects and prepare the students for the Work
Placement. The work experience of one year in a medical laboratory will give
them the opportunity to enhance their theoretical knowledge and acquire competence
in carrying out tests and managing a medical laboratory.
