Bachelor of Science

Medical Biotechnologists play an important role in the research and development of products used to treat and prevent human disease. They use sophisticated laboratory techniques to assist medical scientists in research and pharmaceutical industries in development and production of medical drugs, biologicals, and vaccines.

The baccalaureate program in medical biotechnology is designed to educate students in the areas of molecular biology and aspects of clinical laboratory science that pertain to biomedical research and laboratory diagnosis. The objectives of this program are directly related to the central mission of SUNY Upstate Medical University, "to improve the health of the communities we serve through education, biomedical research, and health care."
