Program offered is an Associate.
Keiser University's Associate of Science degree in Histotechnology prepares students to work as histotechnicians in a variety of anatomic pathology laboratory settings. The Histotechnology program is designed to develop technical and intellectual skills as well as developing individuals with a commitment to quality patient care, a passion for the profession, and continued growth within the field. Students learn the core requirements of histotechnology including the processing and embedding of surgically removed anatomic specimens and microtomy. Students will master routine and special staining techniques that make it possible to distinguish tissue components through microscopic examination. Histotechnicians have numerous choices of practice settings: hospitals, for-profit laboratories, clinics, public health facilities, industrial research, veterinary pathology, marine biology and forensic pathology. Specialized areas include electronic microscopy and immunohistochemistry.
