| Rationale: | |
| The program has steadily declined in enrollment over the past several years and it is increasingly
difficult to place students in clinical programs at hospitals. Demand for Medical Technologists have also shrunk. Furthermore, the coordinator for the program for the past 15 years is retiring. Hence, this is a logical time to delete the program. | |
