About the Program

Emphasis is placed on the proper application of sterile technique and modern technology to patient care in the operating room. Upon completion of the program the student is qualified to take the national certification examination for surgical technologists.

Criminal Background Checks
Most clinical facilities
require that criminal background checks be completed prior to allowing students
to participate in clinical training at their facilities.
Applicants conditionally accepted into the ST program will be required to
complete a criminal background check. Final
acceptance into to the program is contingent upon a satisfactory background check, which will be completed by an approved agency.
The cost of the criminal background check will be at the applicant’s
expense. The anticipated cost for
the criminal background check is $52.02. Information
regarding this process should be obtained from the Surgical Technology Department Head.
