Welcome to the Department of Allied Health Sciences at Mirpur University of Science and Technology (MUST), Mirpur. This is a pristine enterprise through which we intend to develop outstanding human resources in diverse areas of health sciences. The objective of the department is to prepare Allied Health Professionals who can work efficiently to provide patient-centered Allied Health services for the community. We suppose our graduates to be hard-working, honest, and up-to-date professionals who show compassion for the human condition and will leave lasting footprints on our society.
To encounter imminent challenges, a conducive environment is provided to our students to effectively steer through a rigorous set of theory and laboratory based courses. Currently, the department is offering following two programs:
- BS Medical Lab Technology (BS MLT)
- BS Surgical & Operation Theater Technology (BS S & OTT)
The curriculum is designed keeping in view the personality development and academic excellence of the students and as per the requirements of national and international standards.
Evidently, our outgoing Health Professionals would be an asset in the field of laboratory testing and providing valid data to the physicians for utilization in diagnostic and decision-making process.
We welcome you to become a part of the DAHS where you will be trained as Allied Health Professionals to play a key role in curing the fractures in society through progressiveness, kindness, and restful coexistence. We look forward to developing new programs, new collaborations, and strengthen prevailing relationships.
