The internships for B.Sc. MLS students are available in different health and research facilities. In the hospitals and diagnostic laboratories, there is practical experience in clinical biochemistry, hematology, microbiology, and pathology, including sample collection, analysis, and diagnostic testing. Blood banks offer exposure to transfusion science, crossmatching, and donor screening, while forensic labs allow the students to work on crime scene investigations and toxicology reports.
Additional experiences for students in internships at pharmaceutical and biotechnology research laboratories will help in developing skills on molecular diagnostics, immunology, and genetic testing. Public health laboratories offer disease surveillance and epidemiology experience. Academic research institutions emphasize laboratory techniques, quality control, and data interpretation. All these internships develop technical expertise, critical thinking, and teamwork that will be needed for work as medical lab technologists, research scientists, or specialists in laboratory medicine. Many programs require or recommend internships for professional certification and industry readiness.
