Key Summary
About: The Laboratory Medicine Biology (LMB) programme at a Lithuanian biomedical university combines multidisciplinary diagnostics training with research methodology. It covers biochemistry, hematology, immunohematology, hemostasis, immunology, microbiology and genetics. The programme uses strong infrastructure in a licensed health-care institution to give labor-market skills, consulting and testing experience. It lets you specialize, think across disciplines and adopt a research approach to deepen learning and prepare for clinical and research settings.
Career Outcomes: Graduates can work in clinical laboratories and research settings. Typical roles include clinical laboratory scientist, medical laboratory technologist, genetic technologist, hematology specialist, laboratory research technician, and laboratory diagnostics consultant.
Laboratory Medicine Biology
The LMB is of multidisciplinary (polyvalent) character. It encompasses the study main fields of lab diagnostics: Lab Biochemistry, Hematology, Immunohematology, Hemostasis, Immunology, Microbiology, Genetics, etc.
The excellent infrastructure results in exceptionally broad possibilities to gain Health Care labour market-oriented skills to the graduate in the largest health care institution, licenced to provide lab diagnostic and testing-related consulting services. The programme offers a strong foundation in medical research methodology while allowing specialisation in individual interests.
The programme is focused on guiding students towards achieving their full potential. We make that happen by providing practical health care system oriented skills and by deepening the learning of students, allowing them to think across subject disciplines, and appreciate the benefits of adopting a student research approach.
