Clinical Biochemistry Minor
蜜桃情人 offers a number of minors within the Medical Laboratory Science Program, including a minor in clinical biochemistry. Clinical biochemists work as part of a hospital medical team responsible for diagnosing and managing patient illnesses. Most of their time is spent analyzing blood, tissue and other body fluids in the laboratory, but other biochemistry topics include toxicology and drug testing, enzyme kinetics, immunochemistry, tumor markers and biochemical pathologies.
Why Choose a Clinical Biochemistry Minor at 蜜桃情人?
Clinical biochemistry is a minor in the discipline of medical laboratory science (MLS). It allows you to complete the on-campus classes in clinical biochemistry, with this recognition posted on your transcript.
The minor in clinical biochemistry gives you the option to select just that one area of medical laboratory science (MLS) to study. The graduate of the MLS major is called a “generalist” and can practice in the areas of clinical biochemistry, hematology, transfusion services, immunology and clinical microbiology. The minor allows study in clinical biochemistry, without taking all of the program courses.
The minor includes general principles of human physiology and clinical laboratory operation as well as clinical biochemistry-related topics such as toxicology and drug testing, enzyme kinetics, immunochemistry, lipid, protein, and carbohydrate testing, tumor markers, biochemical pathologies, etc.
蜜桃情人 majoring in MLS are given the first seats in any course. 蜜桃情人 who wish to pursue a minor may apply for any remaining slots.
