PROJECT-BASED LEARNING
Students in Maryville’s clinical lab science program graduate with a bachelor’s degree in science in four years, and a concentration in CLS after an internship in the fifth year. Maryville is affiliated with St. John’s Mercy Hospital School of Clinical Lab Science and entry into the internship is highly competitive. Once you complete the program, you will be eligible to take a CLS/MT certification exam.
