Healthcare & Bioscience

Allied Health — Healthcare is one of the largest and fastest- growing occupations in the Bay Area with many in-demand job opportunities. At Merritt College, which offers renowned programs in Nutrition & Dietetics, Medical Assisting, Nursing, Radiologic Science, and Emergency Medical Technician, students have a wide choice of studies and get essential hands-on experience in hospitals, medical clinics, and doctor’s offices.

Bioscience — The demand for bioscience specialists is evident at Merritt where students are getting offered jobs before they even complete their studies. In Genomics, you’ll research the DNA content in organisms; in Microscopy, you’ll take images of cells and tissues using high-end digital imaging systems; and in Histotechnology, you’ll learn how to prepare slides to be used in the diagnosis of disease.
