High School Students - Plan A College Education!

A Message from the Department Chair

Welcome to the Department of Bioscience Technologies...your Regional Center for Laboratory Education, Practice and Research.

Healthcare breakthroughs begin in the laboratory, and Laboratory Scientists are the people who refine lab methods and conduct tests that keep people healthy, prevent disease and diagnose problems. The need for well-trained, flexible and creative Laboratory Scientists will continue well into the future.

With our undergraduate and graduate programs in Biotechnology, Cytotechnology, Medical Technology, or our part-time programs in Molecular Biology, Blood Banking, Clinical Chemistry, Hematology, and Microbiology, we think you'll find a Bioscience career at Jefferson that's right for you.

There's never been a better time to start your career as a Laboratory Expert! Jobs are plentiful all across the country, and positions in clinical and research labs are expected to grow by 40% over the next 10 years.

The faculty, staff and students of Jefferson's Department of Bioscience Technologies are pleased to provide you with the information at this web site. We hope it will help you learn more the Bioscience Technologies fields, as well as the advantages of preparing for your career at Thomas Jefferson University.
