Medical Laboratory Scientists work in clinical diagnostic pathology laboratories and perform and interpret tests on a wide range of human (and veterinary) samples such as blood, bone marrow, urine, and tissue. The results they generate are used to assess health status, diagnose disease and monitor the effects of various treatment/therapies, e.g. chemotherapy used in cancer treatments. 70% of all clinical decisions are either wholly or partially based on the results generated by pathology laboratories. In addition, 100% of cancers are diagnosed by pathology testing, as well as performing 100% of COVID-19 tests in laboratories.
The Bachelor of Medical Laboratory Science is externally accredited by the peak representative body for medical laboratory scientists in Australia, the Australian Institute for Medical and Clinical Scientists. The program contains all the relevant professional units as well as a 16-week professional placement.
