Please is the qualifications for this position Masters degree or equivalent professional qualifications?

Just like Medicine, you can't just stop at BSC level for MCB. you have to specialize at postgraduate level... dude, it is because mcb association is weak that is why MLS have mouth in nigeria. trust me you guys are just lab technicians elsewhere.. I will say it again... a graduate of mcb just needs 6-month training to get the medlab license abroad,,,, Nigeria is just a useless country that is why you have ground.... a country where history graduates work in space research organization.... in all the breakthroughs in medicine and infectious disease since the creation of this world, have you heard any MLS graduate discover something? modena and pfizer scientists who created the vaccines for coronavirus, check their degrees... they are vaccinologists, microbiologists, biochemists and doctors... and they all have skills in lab science without going through 4yrs of useless school to restrict themselves in just one field. please be guided ooo.... |

also tell me which is more recognised... A MCB degree or MLS degree worldwide? MLS is only recognised in the medical line... whoever that is reading this, if you are not a diligent person, choose MLS..... if you are really committed, choose MCB... because you cant get much in your career with just a bsc in mcb.... but when you further, you will gain more grounds in months than mls degree get in years.. i assure you that... everybody needs to defend his degree to make himself/herself less depressed... but let us be logical without sentiments.. mcb is a better career than mls.. |

MCB was never meant to be for only medical courses. Yall think when someone mentions mcb, it deals with health. you are wrong. that is why it is necessary to further into specific fields. but mls is restricted to only the medical line. with a bsc in mcb, you can get a msc in mls outside this country.. i studied bsc in mcb, msc in medical microbiology and received training in medical lab science. i can do any work a mls person can do.. and it took me just 6 months of training.. can you guy even do proteonomics and genomics? I don't think you guys can even do cancer research and DNA study in nigeria.. i hear say they taught you guys that... in the research field, who is more oriented and diverse between mcb and mls? it is surely mcb... anyday, anytime... meanwhile, I could drop the msc degree and still go into oil, environmental, food and industrial microbiology. we in mcb got an internship with Exxon mobile before graduating. i could work in a brewery.. etc.. that is why I said you can never compare mcb with mls.. with a mls degree, you cannot work outside the medical line.. i understand and agree that bsc in mcb is not better than a mls degree... but we have different fields to further in... and we could choose the medical line and still have a fallback in case it does not work out in themedical loine.... |

okay... graduate first, and after spending 30yrs in a dead-end lab in one hospital, come back and argue. because we both know that is where most of you will end up. Can't imagine someone comparing a course in one field to a course in about 5 fields. https://www.historyofvaccines.org/index.php/content/articles/careers-vaccine-research check that website.. that's a field they will never see an MLS in.. and you want me to compete with you in a 100,000 dead-end job in a dry ass hospital.. *I spit |

Lol... you bet your balls? what else do they do in the lab abeg? did they teach you what microbiology is? because you did not get a job as a microbiologist? because the brain-dead school you went to contains graduates of microbiology that did not get job in their field? guy, microbiologists are getting jobs.. u just don't know,, check out this pic.. how many years it will take you to be a lab technician that you people are fighting for... This is from the American Society of microbiology...

Lol.. they are not in top schools, they are not in many schools.. Dude... You can't argue this at all.. It's not even reasonable to argue with you.. You are comparing a broad course in oil, environmental, plant, food, geoscience, space and medical fields....you are comparing it with a course in only medical line.. Imagine this insult ooo.. Is it salary range you wanna compare, is it the unlimited potential in career you wanna compare? I studied med microbiology, and yet I could leave it and go into oil, bioremediation etc... Or is it because Nigeria is limiting the course? Ant comparing itself with elephant.. Who will they pick in research between a medical microbiologist and a medlabsci? After hospital and diagnostic labs that pays not more than 300k for those that have more than 20yrs, which other high end salary is in medlab ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Lol, you are in 400lvl, so I won't blame you... Your brain never develop well.. Leave school first and enter life... Then we can talk.. For the other people reading this that's trying to make a decision btw medlab nd mcb, just know you can't practice with your Nigeria license outside this country, you still need to take part in a training before taking the exam... That's up to 12mnths I'm sure... Just think about that.. You are limited to Nigeria where I can assure you, you might get employment easier but your salary won't pass 300k in your lifetime... 300k is even too too too much.. it's only for the Baba in the course that spent over 25yrs in the field.. unless you wanna go into academics, which is the same salary as other courses.. if you go into academics, I can assure you, MCB get more and easier grants than medlab.. that's if medlab do research sef ![]() ![]() ![]() You can go for that and be limited or go for MCB and be committed.. i can assure you the ISS is your starting point.. I am 26yrs and I'm already making 230k per month in my job.. that's apart from the Forex trading and IT work I do.. Just be committed, I assure you, you won't regret it.. We like fast and cheap success in Nigeria and your peers will pressure you.. but I say again, hard work and smart work pays.. can't argue anymore.. Peace ![]() *drops mic John out |

I work in NCDC Osun State Biolab.. Go ask them who John is. And yes there are no MLS or CLS in any top schools.. John Hopkins, Havard, MIT, Oxford, Uni of Newyork, Manchester United, UBC, any top schools.. and that speaks a lot.. Weber state university even offers online BMLS ![]() ![]() Check ooooo.. oga. If you want to argue, check your facts right Mr. man And yes, I'll say again, there are no BMLS in NCDC and in UNICEF. Study MCB for 4yrs in Nigeria, go abroad and get a 2yrs professional certification in MLS.. Where you'll get a better training and a international recognised license.. I'll link you to people that do that alot.. Oga, don't be pained and cry.. I accept BSc MCB is a somewhat useless certificate in Nigeria.. and that's because it's too broad and there are no much industries for MCB to work in Nigeria.. But it's the foundation to many potential success that MLS will never take you to.. It's commitment one will only need.. I still wonder why people who don't want to further and specialise in a field still go for BSc MCB.. Just that we Nigerians want fast and cheap success.. that's why they all stop at BSc.. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() What I can't believe is MLS having so much mouth against MCB.. you have restricted yourself to a medical laboratory compared to the different fields we can work.. now that COVID-19 happened, abeg tell me where you see MLS come out to talk. at least I have seen a medical doctor, a public health scientist, a virologist and a professor in MCB come out to give advice on the media.. Did they teach public health in MLS? If you want to create vaccine, na MLS dy go call? Is it not people with background in cellular biology, MCB or BCH? You restrict your career to only a med lab and you are making mouth against MCB.. chai, see wetin Nigeria do MCB oooo.. Bros if you want real advice, check people's opinion outside Nigeria.. they'll give you a better career advice compared to angered poor mentality Nigerians.. 1 Like |

If you want a real positive answer.. check what people on Reddit and Quora say.. You'll see that Nigerians are just sadists.. MCB is a far better career path... |

In Nigeria and other under developed countries, MLS is a better career FOR NOW.. But go outside this country, you can never see a degree in med lab sci in most schools.. That is because it's a broad course and no one can specialise in pathology, micro, biochem, haemo etc all at once.. That's becoming a jack of all trade.. MLS in Nigeria is the reason we will never progress, because no matter what they say, they will always provide mediocre service to health. And in the future, Nigeria will definitely cut off MLS because it's too broad. The reason why microbiogists are not treated well in Nigeria is because they don't further into special fields.. You can't graduate a microbiologist and think you are done.. So my advice is take the MLS career and remain a local champion in hospital that will probably burn out in the nearest future, or take MCB and further into either med micro, research or MPH.. I am a microbiologist and I study Medical Microbiology for master's degree.. I'm currently working at NCDC as a virologist and I previously worked at UNICEF as an intern public health scientist, and I can tell you i have not seen any MLS in the 2 places I have worked.. If you are a committed person, go for MCB and further your degree, during your masters, volunteer for different health programs, I promise you, there are plenty places you can work.. And if you want to a certificate in MLS to work in a medical lab, just apply for a scholarship abroad, it'll take you only 2yrs and a better training.. compared to the joke of a BMLS in Nigeria.. after the 2 years, you'll have a knowledge of many fields in Microbiology and also MLS Meanwhile a MLS graduate can never use 2 yrs to learn all the fields of MCB.. he/she needs to starr a 4yr program again.. That's 8yrs.. compared to 6yrs you'll use.. Argue with your ignorant brains 4 Likes |
