Plan for your Future
This program is in association with Bismarck State College(BSC). The AS degree is awarded by BSC, but the courses are completed at MCC.
The MLT program is highly selective with a limited enrollment. Selection depends upon academic preparation and early date of application. An interview with program officials is required prior to acceptance. The purpose of the interview is to assist students in making the right career choice and to design a curriculum plan that affords the greatest opportunity for success. Students are required to earn a "C" or higher in all prescribed courses and maintain a minimum GPA of 2.00 to successfully complete the program.

The mission of the Medical Laboratory Technician (MLT) program is to provide a high quality, learning-centered education in medical laboratory theory and practice that maximizes student learning and makes students partners in their education. Medical laboratory technicians, under supervision of a physician or medical laboratory scientist, perform general laboratory tests that aid physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of disease.
Goals of the Medical Laboratory Technician program are to:
- Train competent MLTs with the knowledge and skills necessary for entry-level proficiency in all areas of medical laboratory science.
- Provide a two-year associate degree program for students in the region.
- Operate a program in which a maximum number of credits will fulfill requirements for four-year Medical Laboratory Science programs in the region.
The curriculum allows a student to meet employment and transferability goals. Students receive both theoretical and experiential study, including an internship through clinical affiliate Holy Rosary Healthcare in Miles City, MT.
