B.Sc. ‑ Medical Lab Technology

Durgapur

Overview

Medical Laboratory Technology, also called Clinical Laboratory Science, is an allied health/paramedical profession, which is concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease through the use of clinical laboratory tests. NSHM offers B.Sc. in Medical Laboratory Technology programme (MLT) in Kolkata and Durgapur where students will be trained with practical and theoretical knowledge. It is one of the best colleges to get a B.Sc. degree in MLT where students will acquire knowledge about collection and sampling of important data, testing, reporting and documenting medical investigations.

Doctors rely on laboratory technologies to detect, diagnose and treat diseases. This programme covers the basics of pre-clinical subjects such as Biochemistry, Pathology, Microbiology and Blood Banking. Medical Laboratory Technologists (MLT) do these tests by analysing body fluids, tissues, blood typing, microorganism screening, chemical analyses, cell counts of human body etc.

Programme Education Objective

Prepare students with knowledge and skills in fundamental aspects of human biology, pathology, histopathology, haematology, immunology & serology, immunohematology & blood banking, clinical enzymology, parasitology & virology, clinical endocrinology & toxicology for superior roles and careers in medical lab diagnostics in diagnostic Labs and speciality, super-speciality, and multi-speciality healthcare institutions.
Enable them to adapt to the modern and emerging medical lab technologies by way of lifelong learning and practice in a multi-disciplinary and diverse health environments and discharge their services with ethics, values and social responsibility.
