What you will study

UCM’s bachelor’s in Medical Laboratory Science program will train you to collect and analyze information with the appropriate techniques and scientific instruments. You’ll learn how biologists think and problem-solve while building your communication and collaboration skills.

While Medical Laboratory Sciences programs with lab-based coursework are becoming hard to find, the University of Central Missouri firmly believes that face-to-face and hands-on lab courses are crucial for preparing you to work in the field. Our labs are primarily run by faculty with doctorates in their specialty areas.
Some of the rigorous, innovative courses you’ll take while earning your bachelor’s degree in Medical Laboratory Science include:

• A human anatomy course created through a grant from the National Center for Academic Transformation (NCAT) that embraces the flipped classroom environment, using class time for active engagement instead of lectures.
• A course in human physiology in which you’ll observe and collect data from your own body one week, and then use that data to predict responses in diseased case studies the next week
