Graduate

Employment Opportunities:

Unlike the undergraduate students who have successfully obtained the bachelor’s degree from the Department of Medical Biotechnology and Laboratory Science, graduate students completing the master’s program of the Department will not be able to sit the professional or technical exams mentioned above.  Other than that, the rest of the employment options for graduate students are not different from undergraduates, though graduate students do have more competitive advantages in looking for a profession or sitting the government examinations.

Graduate students tend to be more competent in obtaining professional leadership roles and more advanced R&D positions.
