The following is written by and according to the U.S. Department of Labor and particular to the job outlook for clinical laboratory technologist and technicians.
Rapid job growth and excellent job opportunities are expected. Most jobs will continue to be in hospitals, but employment will grow faster in other settings.
Employment change. Employment of clinical laboratory workers is expected to grow 14 percent between 2006 and 2016, faster than the average for all occupations. The volume of laboratory tests continues to increase with both population growth and the development of new types of tests.
Technological advances will continue to have opposing effects on employment. On the one hand, new, increasingly powerful diagnostic tests will encourage additional testing and spur employment. On the other, research and development efforts targeted at simplifying routine testing procedures may enhance the ability of nonlaboratory personnel-physicians and patients in particular-to perform tests now conducted in laboratories.
Although hospitals are expected to continue to be the major employer of clinical laboratory workers, employment is expected to grow faster in medical and diagnostic laboratories, offices of physicians, and all other ambulatory health care services.
Job prospects. Job opportunities are expected to be excellent because the number of job openings is expected to continue to exceed the number of job seekers. Although significant, job growth will not be the only source of opportunities. As in most occupations, many additional openings will result from the need to replace workers who transfer to other occupations, retire, or stop working for some other reason.

What do you call someone who analyzes blood work or a CBC and what type of education and certification are they required to have?
There are several positions in healthcare that may analyze blood samples. From least to most education (and pay, generally) - Medical Laboratory Technicians (MLT's) need to earn an Associate's degree from an accredited program. Medical Technologists (AKA Clinical Laboratory Scientists) generally need to earn a bachelor's degree in Medical Technology or Clinical Laboratory Science. They may also have a degree in one of the natural sciences and post-baccalaureate training from an accredited program. They usually need certification (offered by different boards). Clinical Pathologists need an M.D. or D.O. and a specialty in that field as well as board certification.
Where can you earn a microbiology degree online?
There may be places which offer such degrees, but it is well to ask: how will I do my laboratory work, and where?Microbiology is a laboratory science. Much about it can be learned online and from books, but this alone will not be sufficient for someone to become a microbiologist, or even a laboratory technician.

Who makes more money someone with a bachelors of science or bachelors of arts?
It's not the type of bachelor's degree that one has, but the person who has the degree that determines how much can be made. A bachelors' degree gives an individual a certain amount of expertise, but it's how one appropriately uses that expertize that makes the difference. It comes from passion and a love for what one does, and that through good critical thinking skills, dedication, persistence, and perseverance.

a registered medical technologist is someone who has a bachelor of science degree in clinical laboratory medicine and passes a national certification examination, post graduation. We study a lot of biology and chemistry and are a vital part of the healthcare team. I was once told that without lab results, doctors can only guess! In alot of instances, this is true. With advances in the field in the last 30 years that I have been involved, this is more true than ever before.
How many years does it take to earn a master degree in computer science?
If you already have a bachelors degree in computer science, then you can complete a masters degree in one year (two semesters) of full time study. If you have a bachelors degree in some other field, you will probably need to take some number of additional undergraduate courses which will depend on your degree and the particular school. Someone with an undergraduate degree in engineering will obviously need fewer extra courses than if your degree is in English. If you lack an undergraduate degree, then add four years.
