Saint Louis University's medical laboratory science certificate program is designed for individuals who hold a bachelor's degree in another discipline but wish to transition into the medical laboratory field. The program provides three specialized tracks: clinical hematology, clinical microbiology, and medical chemistry. Students who earn this certification gain the skills to perform and oversee comprehensive laboratory analyses, which play a crucial role in assessing patient health, identifying illnesses, and tracking treatment effectiveness. Program alumni typically find employment in diagnostic labs, research facilities, and similar clinical environments. After finishing the program, graduates qualify to pursue categorical medical laboratory professional certification through the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP).
