Biomedical Science Major: Medical Laboratory Science Option (B.S.)
Majoring in Biomedical Sciences: Medical Laboratory Science at UNH equips you with the skills and knowledge necessary for a critical role in healthcare diagnostics. This program offers in-depth training in laboratory techniques, including analyzing blood, tissues and other biological samples to diagnose diseases. With a strong emphasis on hands-on learning, you will gain practical experience in state-of-the-art labs, preparing you for certification and a career as medical laboratory scientist. This major is ideal for students interested in behind-the-scenes work in healthcare, offering excellent job prospects, job stability and the satisfaction of contributing to patient care and medical research.
WHAT IS MEDICAL LABORATORY SCIENCE?
Medical laboratory science relies on the use of diagnostic tools to detect the presence, extent or absence of human disease, and to provide the valuable data needed to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment. Based on solid foundational and advanced courses in chemistry and the biological sciences, this degree program prepares students for a fulfilling career in the biomedical sciences, including as a certified medical laboratory scientist, and for further study in medicine or for entry to graduate programs.
WHY STUDY MEDICAL LABORATORY SCIENCE AT UNH?
UNH has the only four-year, NAACLS-accredited medical laboratory science program in New Hampshire, giving students a path to become certified medical laboratory scientists with the American Society of Clinical Pathology. Students gain hands-on experience performing immunological, biochemical, molecular and microbiological procedures and have excellent internship opportunities through affiliations with Dartmouth Hitchco*ck Medical Center, NorDx/Maine Medical Center and other regional hospitals, medical centers and diagnostic facilities. In 2022, the clinical program within the Medical Laboratory Science option had a pass rate of 83%, on the American Society of Clinical Pathologists Board of Certification exam, placement rate of 100%, and graduation rate of 100%. In 2021, the exam pass rate was 94%, placement rate was 100%, and graduation rate was 100%. In 2020, the exam pass rate was 87%, the placement rate was 100%, and the graduation rate was 100%.

How long is the clinical internship?
The clinical internship is a 16-week unpaid clinical experience where students train alongside laboratory technologists in the areas of hematology, chemistry, microbiology and blood bank.
- Following the completion of the clinical internship, students are eligible to sit for the national certification exam offered by the American Society of Clinical Pathology (ASCP) to become certified Medical Laboratory Scientists.
What is the benefit of completing the clinical internship?
Graduates who complete the clinical internship are eligible to sit for the ASCP certification exam. Passing the ASCP certification exam makes students eligible to be hired as nationally certified Medical Laboratory Scientists.
- Medical Laboratory Scientists are in high demand: job growth is currently projected to be above average for many years.
- All clinical internship graduates since 2014 have had a 100% employment rate upon graduation from the program.
What is your first-time pass rate on the ASCP certification exam?
The first-time pass rate on the ASCP certification exam was 97% from 2013-2015 and 92% from 2016-2018.
- The national first-time pass rate for hospital-based programs during these times was 79% and 84%, respectively.
Where do students go to participate in their clinical internship?
Dartmouth-Hitchco*ck Medical Center is our primary clinical affiliate, taking approximately 9 students each year.
- Other clinical sites include Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, Catholic Medical Center, Lahey Clinic, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Portsmouth Regional Hospital and NorDx/Maine Medical Center.
What are the eligibility requirements for the clinical internship?
A minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA and a minimum 2.5 GPA in the required Medical Laboratory Science courses.
- Positive recommendation and evaluation from three out of the four Medical Laboratory Science faculty.
- A minimum average of 70% on all lecture exams in the required Medical Laboratory Science courses.
Where are your program graduates employed once they complete the clinical internship?
Graduates can be found in virtually every hospital in NH!
- NH sites include Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, Exeter Hospital, Portsmouth Regional Hospital, Dartmouth-Hitchco*ck Medical Center and Concord Hospital.
- Sites outside of NH include Gifford Hospital, Lahey Clinic, Boston Medical Center, St. Joseph’s Hospital (Bangor, ME) and Fletcher-Allen Medical Center.
What other career options are there for students in the major who may not be interested in the clinical internship?
Students have a wide variety of career options when graduating with a degree in Biomedical Science: Medical Laboratory Science.
- Many of our students that do not complete the clinical internship pursue careers as physician assistants or enroll in accelerated nursing programs.
- Students also pursue careers in public health, as research scientists in the biomedical industry, in technical writing, in business and marketing and many, many others.
- Faculty advisors work individually with students to determine their career goals and select the courses that best prepare that student to be a competitive entry-level applicant in their chosen field.
Where are your program graduates employed that do not complete the clinical internship?
Program graduates who do not earn certification as a Medical Laboratory Scientist work in a variety of places based on their career choices, including Lonza, Cell Signaling Technologies, the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Toxikon, Idexx, Joslin Diabetes Center and Thermo-Fisher Scientific amongst many others.
How does the phlebotomy internship work?
The phlebotomy internship is an 80-hour unpaid clinical experience at a hospital or outpatient draw facility, typically performed over the summer between sophom*ore and junior year.
- Students are placed at sites local to their home and are frequently offered per-diem employment upon successful completion of their internship.
Is it possible to study abroad in this major?
Absolutely! It is easier for students to study abroad if they are not pursuing the clinical internship because the courses the students need are only available on the UNH campus.
- Students who are interested in studying abroad work with their advisor to carefully map out their coursework and typically plan to study abroad through one of UNH’s many sponsored programs in the spring of their junior year.
- Often, coursework taken during the semester abroad fulfills Discovery requirements but does not typically fulfill any major requirements.
Can I complete a minor?
Definitely! Again, it is easier to complete a minor if a student is not completing the clinical internship because there is greater flexibility in course selection but even for the clinical track students it can be done.
- Faculty typically encourage students to pursue a minor starting in their sophom*ore or juniors years, once they have a better idea about their career interests.
The clinical program within the Medical Laboratory Science option has had a 3-year pass rate on the American Society of Clinical Pathologists Board of Certification exam of 85% between 1/1/2018 and 5/31/2021. There is 0% attrition and a 100% graduation rate for all students beginning the 2nd half of the program. One hundred percent of the clinical students find employment within a very short period of time after graduation and many are hired before they even complete the program.
As part of the University of New Hampshire’s Discovery Program requirements, all students must complete a Capstone experience.
