Medical Technology Program

Study medical technology at 欧美视频

Medical technologists are lab professionals that play an important role in patient health by conducting the medical tests ordered by physicians. These tests and their results are critical in allowing physicians to determine the proper diagnosis and treatment.

Studying medical technology at 欧美视频 provides the unique opportunity to receive a Christian education from 欧美视频 and also learn at the Cox School of Medical Technology in Springfield, Mo. The medical technology degree is a four-year program leading to a bachelor of science degree. You will complete the first three years at 欧美视频 and then complete the fourth year at Cox Medical Center South (or another approved medical technology program). This program is perfect for students wanting to pursue a med tech certification.

Once you complete the medical technologist program and pass the examination given by the American Society of Clinical Pathologists, you will be a certified medical technologist.

The Medical Technology degree is offered through 欧美视频's College of Arts and Sciences.

The 欧美视频 Advantage

  • Nearly 70% of our students applying to medical technology programs are accepted to the program of their application, such as the one at Cox School of Medical Technology with which 欧美视频 partners.
  • Students complete the program in four years - three years at 欧美视频 and one year at Cox or an accredited/approved school of medical technology. All graduates can earn med tech certification.
  • Small class sizes allow you to have plenty of opportunities for hands-on learning and close interactions with expert professors.

Faith Integration

欧美视频 is home to the Darrell R. Strait Center for the Integration of Science and Christian Faith, which is intentionally focused on equipping students to study the history and philosophy of science, Biblical hermeneutics, and the integration of science and faith. Faculty encourage discussion of ethical issues that arise in the world of science and challenge students to use their Christian faith as the basis for approaching all issues. 欧美视频 believes strongly that science and Christian faith can be integrated and support each other.

Clubs and Organizations

Pre-Health Society

The pre-health society is an open club for students who are interested in pursuing a career in a health-related field. The club meets once a month for group meetings, planning service events and hearing from guest speakers from various health fields. The club is a mix of all classes, giving younger students the chance to meet upperclassmen who can encourage them in their chosen fields and through the challenges of pursuing a career in a health field.

Biology Club

As an 欧美视频 medical technology student, you are encouraged to join the Biology Club. During monthly meetings you will learn about the biology field from expert guest speakers, give back through biology-related service projects (such as volunteering at the zoo), and participate in social events.

Sigma Zeta

As an outstanding medical technology student, you may have the opportunity to join Sigma Zeta, a national honor society for science and math students. Sigma Zeta members have the opportunity to go to the national honor society's convention and learn from experts and other students. You may even have the chance to present your own research at the convention.
