Notes
*** The Pre-Medical Technology curriculum at EOU prepares students for admission into accredited programs at hospitals and universities. Medical technologists are prepared to enter the medical laboratory science profession and to pursue career opportunities in various laboratory settings or in preparation for graduate school. Two possible options exist for students interested in medical technology. Students can complete three years of prerequisite coursework at EOU and then transfer to a university or medical school program for an additional 12 months of training. These students normally received a BAchelor of Science degree directly from the medical technology program into which they transfer. Or, students can complete a Bachelor of Science degree at EOU and then transfer to either a university or a hospital-based program for the final 12-15 months of training. Since hospital programs cannot grant degrees, students must have a Bachelor of Science degree prior to entering these programs.
