Laboratory Specialist Advanced Technical Certificate
A Laboratory Specialist Advanced Technical Certificate (ATC) provides students with exposure to the principles of biological sciences, chemistry and mathematics necessary for success in a scientific work environment. Laboratory technicians work under the direction of a laboratory supervisor and have diverse work environments that range from government laboratories to manufacturing laboratory environments. Many of the courses contained within this certificate are also prerequisites for Allied Health and STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) degree programs. Credits within this certificate may apply towards the State Mandated Prerequisites for the Biology degree (B.S.). Some credits from this certificate can also be applied toward the Biotechnology A.S. degree at SPC. Students may pursue one or more certificates to develop or upgrade their skills
