Medical technology requires a solid educational foundation.
A Combined Faculty Committee, made up of representatives from each program, is responsible for the administration of the division. Through the affiliated program, students have the option of obtaining their education at Nebraska Methodist Hospital , or at UNMC facilities in the Nebraska Health System. UNMC also has clinical affiliate sites outside the Omaha area. This option gives students the opportunity to obtain the senior year of their clinical laboratory education near their home communities. The Division of Medical Technology provides patient-centered educational opportunities, with theoretical knowledge and practical experience in hematology, clinical chemistry, microbiology, immunohematology, immunology, endocrinology, biotechnology and research.
