Nichols; Associate Professor: Yasmen Simonian Description Clinical laboratory scientists perform laboratory tests that contribute to the detection, diagnosis, treatment, and study of disease. Education At Weber State the Clinical Laboratory Science programs utilize a ladder concept in curriculum planning. The four year curriculum is divided into two programs. The Clinical Laboratory Technician program comprises the first two years. Students that apply and are accepted into the CLT program may graduate with an associate of applied science degree and are eligible to sit for certification examinations. Students who wish to continue on for a four- year degree must apply and be accepted into the B.S. Clinical Laboratory Scientist program. These students complete the last two years of the curriculum and graduate with a bachelor's degree in Clinical Laboratory Science and are eligible to sit for certification examinations. Admission to Clinical Laboratory Technician Program Students must see a CLS counselor, complete the pre- application courses and make application before April 1 st of | the year they wish to enter the program. Admission to Clinical Laboratory Scientist Program Qualified students make application before April 1st of the year they wish to enter.
