The mission of the Center for Perfusion and Extracorporeal Technology is to train competent, focused, and highly skilled perfusion technicians. Using evidence-based medicine, the program will produce students ready for board examinations and prepare graduates to perform the duties and responsibilities of a cardiovascular perfusionist in a variety of clinical settings.

Jefferson’s post-professional degree allows certified perfusionists, who have graduated an AC-PE accredited program, to obtain a masters in cardiovascular perfusion from one of the nation’s most reputable universities. After successfully completing all required courses, conducting research, and presenting an evidence-based project on how to better patient outcomes, students will earn their post-professional degree.
