UNCG students interested in medical technology have two programs of study from which to choose:
1. A program leading to the Bachelor of Science in Medical Technology (BSMT).
2. A program which includes receipt of a BA or BS with a major in either Biology, Chemistry, or Biochemistry and the completion of an additional 12 months of study in a School of Medical Technology which has been approved by the National Accrediting Agency for the Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS).
Because the recommended courses of study for both programs are essentially the same during the first year, students do not have to make a choice of programs until the end of the freshman year. Students in either program should complete the following courses during their freshman year or during the subsequent summer session: BIO 111, 112 and CHE 111, 112, 114, 115.
