Why the Histotechnology 3+1 Program at Seton Hill University?

Seton Hill University’s 3+1 程序 partners with The Histotechnology School of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center in Pittsburgh, PA. As a student in this unique 程序, you will spend three years at Seton Hill:

• mastering the underlying scientific disciplines that support the practice of histotechnology, 包括生物学, 医学微生物学, 医学遗传学, 生物化学, organic chemistry and human anatomy.
• enjoying study in the liberal arts - to ensure that you have a broad knowledge base to support you in the years to come. 

临床

Your final year will involve intensive classroom and practical training at The Histotechnology School. After successful completion of both phases of the 程序, you will earn a B.S. in Histotechnology from Seton Hill and will be ready to take the national exam of the American Society of Clinical Pathologists Board of Certification for Histotechnicians HT(ASCP). Seton Hill students benefit from the “loss” of a fourth year on-campus, as you spend your final year of schooling getting real-world experience in the medical field, while still graduating in four years with your class.
