BIO-MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY

Bio-Medical Technology I - HTC380
Times Offered: 12:30pm - 2:00pm
*NH Scholars Eligible

 

Bio-Medical Technology is the use and application of a part, product, or entire living thing to solve a human medical problem. In this class, students will learn the fundamentals of medical lab science and engage in real science tasks and skills.

​This class will teach students lab skills necessary for a medical or scientific career in college or in a lab environment, including micropipetting, aseptic procedure, DNA extraction, isolation, and confirmation, basic immunology, gel electrophoresis, PAGE, and how to use the chemical fume hood, thermocycler, and autoclave.

​Students learn these lab skills as well as advanced biology, chemistry, genetics, and protein studies. This program articulates with Plymouth State University for a possible five credits.
 

Transfer Goals: Employ scientific method and lab skills to solve a problem.

Course Highlights:
  • Biotech careers are some of the fastest growing and highest paying in the nation
  • Prepare for a variety of career paths ranging from pharmacy and clinical application to research and biomedical design
  • Work in cutting edge lab featuring unique tools for biomedical research

Special Course Requirements or Prerequisites
