Hello po! Ano po mostly ang nagiging career pathways ng mga graduates po ng course na ito? Thank you po!

Hello po!

I am an aspiring MedTech trying to decide on a university during this CET results season. I was researching on UP Manila's BS Public Health course (which I am planning to appeal for) na nag-ooffer ng Medical Laboratory Science Track from 3rd to 4th year.

My biggest concern is the difference of the subjects/curriculum under this course, compared to BS Medical Technology/Medical Laboratory Science in universities like UST and SLU na other choices ko rin.

Specifically, I noticed the following:

1. May mga subjects na ibang year kinukuha under BS Public Health, compared to BS MedTech/MLS. For example, Human Anatomy and Pathology with Pathophysiology is taught sa first year under UST BS MedTech, pero second year under BS Public Health.
2. May mga subjects na parang hindi inooffer under BS Public Health compared to traditional MedTech course (based on the info I was able to access). I understand na expected to since public health nga yung mismong focus, pero can this be a disadvantage sa boards?
3. I also noticed sa SLU na may mga subjects na divided into lecture and laboratory parts. Pwede rin kaya ito maging disadvantage if ipupursue ang BS Public Health, or baka naman combined ang lecture and laboratory settings sa medium ng pagtuturo?
4. All in all, maaapektuhan kaya yung depth of knowledge ko about MedTech kapag tinuloy ko ang pagkuha ng BS Public Health? I've seen na 100% passing rate sila sa MTLE, pero kinakabahan po ako sa magiging skillset ko in the long run.

I would really appreciate anyone who could enlighten me po about my concerns! I would also appreciate po if someone can give me a heads-up on other things to expect for this course while I'm also in the process of researching about it. Thank you po in advance!

hello po!

ano po yung common career paths ng mga nagttake po ng course na ito? may tumutuloy po ba magRMT then straight into the medical field, or mas marami pong nagppursue ng research and government work?

thank you po!
