The Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology (DMLT) is a 2-year program designed to train students in medical laboratory practices. Laboratory technicians are essential to healthcare, as they perform diagnostic tests that assist physicians in diagnosing diseases, monitoring health conditions, and guiding treatment plans.
Students will learn about laboratory safety, specimen collection, hematology, microbiology, biochemistry, and pathology. The program focuses on the practical aspects of laboratory work, such as preparing slides, testing blood and urine samples, and operating diagnostic machines like microscopes, centrifuges, and analyzers. Students also gain hands-on experience in performing and analyzing tests to provide accurate, reliable results.
Graduates of DMLT are employed in hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, research institutions, and blood banks, where they perform tests to help diagnose and monitor various medical conditions.
