The Program

The Ophthalmic Medical Technology Program provides an intensive combination of lectures, laboratory, and clinical experiences leading to a Bachelor of Science. The program is divided into the pre-professional curriculum and the professional curriculum and requires 124 SC to complete. The pre-professional portion includes a minimum of 55 SC, which students must complete prior to enrollment in the professional component. Students may complete the pre-professional curriculum at any regionally accredited college or university.

Students accepted into the professional component begin their course of study in August. A full-time track is offered which requires six (6) semesters (including two fall, spring, and summer semesters) to complete.
