The purpose of the Degree Program in Biomedical Laboratory Science is to train biomedical laboratory scientist. A biomedical laboratory scientist takes various samples, guides patients and healthcare workers, conducts patient examinations and analyses various laboratory samples. Client service, in-depth understanding of the laboratory research process and quality management are core competencies of a biomedical laboratory scientist. The biomedical laboratory scientist takes care of the operational condition of research equipment and devices. A biomedical laboratory scientist is responsible for the well-being and safety of the patient during the examination. A biomedical laboratory scientist works in collaboration with other healthcare professionals. Biomedical laboratory science is a field of the future that is constantly evolving. New technologies, such as artificial intelligence and genomics, opens up new possibilities for diagnosing and treating diseases. Studies will begin English without the Finnish language proficiency requirement, and will form a foundation for self-study and on-the-job learning in terms of Finnish language skills.
