The Howard Hughes Medical Institute has three times awarded science education and research grants to the department. Benedictine University has an excellent placement record for graduates applying to medical, dental and other professional schools.

You may have the opportunity to participate in research with faculty in the department or you may want to gain a practicum experience within one of the outstanding medical facilities in the Chicago area. With the increasing demand for qualified clinical laboratory scientists and environmental scientists, our challenging yet flexible academic preparation will prepare you to enter professional or graduate programs, as well as find permanent employment after graduation.
