B.S. in Clinical Laboratory Science

Students can obtain a Bachelor of Science in clinical laboratory science, with a concentration in medical technology, by completing three years of coursework in the Biology Program at SEU followed by 15 months at Rutgers University and its affiliated laboratory facilities. Following completion of the three years plus 15 months, a student will obtain a joint degree from the two institutions. A complete description of the programs at Rutgers can be found at https://shp.rutgers.edu/clinical-lab-and-imaging-sciences/bachelor-of-science-medical-laboratory-sciences/.

During the first three years at SEU, a student must fulfill all of the general education requirements of the University. The student must also complete the following science and mathematics courses required by both institutions prior to admission to Rutgers University.
