This is SLC: Our College News

Second-year Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) students at St. Lawrence College recently showcased their learning at a Mini‑Symposium for their Biomedical Chemistry and Laboratory Diagnostics course. Working in teams, students created conference‑style scientific posters that connected core biochemical concepts to clinical and laboratory applications, demonstrating how foundational science informs patient care. 

In honour of National Medical Laboratory week, we are proud to celebrate our  Medical Laboratory Science and Medical Laboratory Assistant/Technician programs—pathways that prepare students for vital, roles within our health care system.  As part of the celebration, we’re shining a spotlight on Olivia Morihovitis, a third‑year Medical Laboratory Science student. After earning a bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry, Olivia knew she wanted to pursue a career as a Medical Laboratory Technologist. She enrolled in our Medical Laboratory Science program to turn that goal into a reality. 

SLC had an outsized presence at the Canadian Mechanical and Plumbing Expo (CMPX) held in Toronto from March 25 to 27. This biennial trade show for the plumbing and HVAC industry is the largest of its kind in Canada and draws over 13,000 industry professionals every time it is run. Over the three days, SLC’s School of Skilled Trades partnered with HVAC industry association HRAI to showcase and promote their innovative hybrid-delivery Residential Air Conditioning Systems Mechanic apprenticeship program within HRAI’s HVAC careers booth.
