Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Allied Health Sciences
  • Clinical Cytogenetics

Background:

  • The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston initiated a clinical cytogenetics educational program in 1983.
  • The program originated within the Medical Technology Program at the School of Allied Health Sciences.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the evolution and structure of an established clinical cytogenetics educational program.
  • To provide a model for other institutions seeking to develop similar allied health science courses.

Main Methods:

  • Programmatic review and curriculum development over several decades.
  • Analysis of program evolution towards increased efficiency and potential master's degree integration.

Main Results:
