Key Summary
If you are interested in biology, chemistry, medicine, and problem-solving, then a degree in clinical laboratory science may provide the perfect career path for you. Clinical laboratory science professionals are vital “healthcare detectives” who perform lab tests to pinpoint the cause of disease through the examination and analysis of blood, tissue, and other body fluids. It is estimated that 70% of all medical decisions made by physicians are based on this vital information provided by clinical laboratory scientists.
The Bachelor of Science in Clinical Laboratory Sciences is awarded jointly with Rutgers University School of Health Professions (Rutgers-SHP). Students must complete specified degree requirements at Felician University before they can enter Rutgers-SHP for their professional coursework.
