Welcome to the Medical Laboratory Sciences Program
Medical laboratory sciences (MLS) is a very diversified field, with
specializations evolving quickly in response to new technologies. Oakland
University's MLS program prepares students for professional opportunities in
settings such as hospitals, commercial clinical labs, research labs, public
health facilities or biomedical corporations. With specializations in
several areas, students may select the program that best fits their
interests.
The MLS program also provides excellent preparation for admission into
professional schools (with necessary supplemental courses) such as medicine,
dentistry, optometry, veterinary medicine and physician assistant.
Students may be admitted to the MLS program directly from high school or by
transferring from other colleges and universities. For more information
