A medical lab scientist is ALWAYS higher in rank and pay then a medical lab technician. Be properly guided. But if you doubt me, go ahead and pick med lab tech. You will realise it in a few short years. 9 Likes |

Medical laboratory technology is different from medical laboratory technician. Medical laboratory technology is a degree program while medical laboratory technician is a diploma program. Medical laboratory technology is the same things as medical laboratory science. Schools in nigeria called it medical laboratory science but I don't know if there is any school in nigeria that call it medical laboratory technology. Most schools in India call it medical laboratory technology and other places. 6 Likes |

bmlsbmls: Are u sure of wht u r saying ? Are u aware dt polytechnics offers both medical lab sci & med lab tech ? D diff is in wht each course deals wit and nt d sch dt offers it.D only diff tin here is dt one hv science and d oda is technology.And science & technology are nt d same and can not be used interchangeably. Sciences brings out d knowledge (ideas) while technology praticalises it ie uses it to produce objects IMO...i think dt MLT are d engineers (technicians ) dt constructs, builds, decorates, ,designs,maintains,repairs, all d facilities, equipments, tools,objects, materials ,dt d med lab scientists uses in d lab.But,both of dem works in d lab because they were almost taught d same tin.Jus like a computer scientist and a computer Engineer(technician)They are taught d same tin almost.And both poly & Uni offers d two courses. All dis are my opinion and corrections wil be wlcm. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Utchgirl: Pls don't confuse yourself and others. Medical laboratory technician and med. Lab. Assistant are diploma and certificate programs run by schools of health and technology. When you graduate, you'll work in the hospital in different cadre with and as a subordinate to Medical Laboratory Scientist. You'll be helping in some preanalytical procedures and some postanalytical procedures and other duties as may be assigned to you by a medical laboratory scientist. A medical laboratory scientist is someone who has undergone Bachelor of medical laboratory science (B.MLS) program in an accredited university. The program is at least five years and it's divided into two phases, the preclinical and clinical phases. In preclinical phase, you offer courses such as basic sciences in year one while in year two, you'll offer human anatomy, physiology and medical biochemistry in most schools alongside MBBS, BDS, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy and Radiography students. In the clinical phase, you'll offer Histology, histochemistry, chemical pathology, Haematology, transfusion science, medical microbiology, clinical immunology among other clinical courses. When you graduate with B.MLS you'll be given provisional licence which will enable you undergo one year compulsory internship program (before NYSC) after which permanent licence will be issued. Finally, Med lab scienctist is at par in terms of cadre (essential clinical staff), work entry point (CONHESS 9/2) and work promotion progression (up to Director) with pharmacist, physiotherapist, and medical radiographer in federal civil service. While in the Academics (University Lecturing), the entry point is Assistant Lecturer. 39 Likes 5 Shares |

MLT which means Medical Laboratory Technician is a personnel who studied medical laboratory science at a technician level which is a 3 year program offered in most colleges of health while, MLS which means Medical Laboratory Science is the study of the scientific principles underlying the disciplines practised in hospital and medical research laboratories. In universities it is awarded as BMLS. 3 Likes |

The Department of Medical Laboratory Sciences offers a five-year professional B.MLS degree programme in Medical Laboratory Science. Courses in Medical Laboratory Science are taught under five disciplines: Clinical Chemistry, Haematology, Medical Microbiology, Histopathology and Immunology including Instrumentation and Pharmacology. In the first four years the student attains over-all competence in all these disciplines. The final year is reserved for undergraduate specialization in any TWO of these Medical Laboratory subjects one as a Major, and the other as a Minor area of specialization. The courses are designed to highlight to the student the central role laboratory investigation of components of biological fluids, blood, urine, cerebro-spinal fluid, secretions, excretions, tissues or organs play in the diagnosis, management and prognosis of disease states. The student also at the end of the course acquires the expertise to fabricate new equipment or repair or modify existing ones, and refine old techniques or introduce new diagnostic procedres. Job Opportunities On the successful completion of the five-year degree programme, students obtain registration with the Institute of Medical Laboratory Sciences and Technology of Nigeria after the completion of a one-year internship in a recognized and accredited hospital. This registration enables them to take up careers in Medical Laboratory Sciences as Medical Laboratory Scientists, in teaching and specialist hospitals, government hospitals, primary health care centres, research centres, private to health centres, private establishments and quality control units of industries. The graduates have job opportunities as research scientists, teachers in institutions of higher learning or they can become employers of labour, by establishing their own diagnostic/research laboratories or instrument maintenance/ fabrication centres. It is part of their professional ethos to ensure quality and uphold accountability in practice. 2 Likes |

Laboratory. Technology are the ones who are practically inclined with what the laboratory chemicals are all about I.e they can identify every chemicals in the laboratory and that's why they are Technicians and the other side of them is that they can manipulate and improvised in a tight situation.. while Lab scientists they follow theory proven it is what is propounded by a scientist that is there final say in a nutshell a lab scientist goes into more research to make discovery of a new chemical that's y they are not limited to research they explore...... |
