Biomedical Laboratory Diagnostics and Medical Laboratory Science

“Professors are always helpful, and it's clear that they are invested in the future success of their students. The ability to rotate at clinical sites for a semester exposes students to real-world applications of what we investigate in the classroom.”

“I would tell prospective students that the WVU School of Medicine is somewhere you can truly call home. I am thankful that I decided to join the BLD program, as the faculty and staff are so welcoming and want to ensure success for every student.”

“My experience has been nothing short of fulfilling and thought provoking. The School of Medicine faculty have pushed me to step outside of my comfort zone and have allowed me to gain confidence in my abilities when I eventually enter the workforce.”

“The School of Medicine does not only provide students with skills necessary for the working environment, but it also provides students with lifelong lesson that will help them grow as an individual.”

“I chose this major because I really enjoy working in a laboratory setting and working with my hands. I also liked the fact that it gave me many options as to what I could do after graduation, such as graduate school and employment opportunities.”

“The material is super interesting and provides you with practical information to help you in your field -- the professors are always willing to help you and taking advantage of their office hours is super beneficial.”

“WVU’s Biomedical Laboratory Diagnostics program is well established and one of the few BLD programs in the country. Not only are there not many, there are even a fewer number of programs that have a Histotechnology track and clinical rotations with a hospital on campus.”

“This place can truly be your home away from home. The faculty within my program have all been very friendly and helpful during my time here and are great professors.”

“My undergraduate degree in Medical Laboratory Science has prepared me so well for my next steps in the Physician Assistant Studies program.”
