SRL Diagnostics, DSEU to cocreate medical lab tech course

Gurugram-based SRL Diagnostics has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Delhi Skill and Entrepreneurship University (DSEU), an institute set up by the Delhi Government. SRL will partner with DSEU to co-create the content and curriculum for undergraduate studies that aim at an industryrelevant programme for training students in the field of medical laboratory technology. SRL will also be on the Board of Studies to review the programme periodically and update it to bring it in line with the industry requirements. The prime areas of the programme would include laboratory specialities like biochemistry, haematology, microbiology, serology, histopathology and cytology, genetics and molecular diagnosis. SRL will also facilitate sponsorships for those students who are top-performing and those students who are not able to afford the programme financially. Students who complete this diploma and undergraduate programme will get opportunities as phlebotomists, accessioning officers and lab technologists. Additionally, students can also benefit from SRL’s extensive network of over 420+ labs for laboratory visits and internship programmes that will provide them with a perspective of global laboratory standards.
