Mission Statement
The University of New Mexico - Gallup Medical Laboratory Technology Program develops lifelong learners to be clinically competent and culturally sensitive professionals delivering diagnostic testing services to clients within our rural health care setting.
While the program is relatively small, its presence has prevented a chronic shortage of laboratory professionals in our area while providing much needed employment opportunities for residents of the region.
The MLT Program aims to continue helping students fulfill their potential and become productive members of society, thereby improving the quality of life for both themselves and the community they serve.
