What is the difference between CLS/MT and CLT/MLT?
A CLS/MT is a Medical Technologist with a Bachelor of Science Degree. CLT/MLT is a Clinical Laboratory Technician who has completed a two-year program for an Associates Degree. At Rose State College, the graduate of the CLT Program earns an Associates in Applied Science Degree in Clinical Laboratory Technology. The MT is often a department supervisor with management duties. The salary for the MT may be higher than that for the CLT; however, due to the critical shortage of qualified laboratory testing personnel, several hospitals in the Oklahoma City area pay the same rate for entry level CLT and MT.
