Overview

The Department of Biomedical Health Sciences at ETSU provides a “human-centric” program with exposure to current concepts, laboratory techniques, and disease prevention/health care recommendations and protocols. The Biology - Microbiology course from East Tennessee State University emphasizes biomedical sciences with a focus on microbiology, immunology, virology, and disease related to human health, as well as anatomy, physiology.

Job Outlook

Employment of medical scientists is projected to grow 10 percent from 2022 to 2032, much faster than the average for all occupations.

About 7,500 openings for medical scientists are projected each year, on average, over the decade. Many of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.
