CLS Online Courses
See the WSU Course Catalog for a short description of each course. Most of the CLT online courses have two major components:
- The didactic ("lecture") content, which is delivered online using various instructional approaches
- The laboratory component, which is to be completed concurrently with the class, in the laboratory where you are employed. A detailed list of laboratory competencies is provided with each course. You will work closely with a mentor in your laboratory who has agreed to be available to answer questions, evaluate core laboratory competencies and give assistance as needed. The role of the mentor is not to serve as a full-time clinical instructor. Various mentors may be utilized depending on the size of your laboratory. At the end of each course, the mentor provides the CLS department with a completed competency list, including comments on your performance.
Credit Hour Requirements
A total of 67 credit hours is required for graduation; 34 of these are required CLS courses, 21 are required support courses, and 12 are required general education courses.
General Education
Refer to General Requirements for Associate of Applied Science requirements. The following required courses will fulfill both program requirements and general education requirements in the Life and Physical Sciences areas (listed below under support courses required): CHEM PS/SI1110, CHEM PS/SI1210, HTHS LS1110, MICR LS1113, MICR LS/SI2054, and PHYS PS/SI1010. Remaining general education requirements can be fulfilled by taking the required 12 credit hours from each of the following areas:
- 6 credit hours Composition (ENG 1010 and 2010)
- 3 credit hours Quantitative Literacy (or CLS 2003*)
- 3 credit hours Creative Arts & Humanities
- 3 credit hours Social Sciences
- 3 credit hours of Physical Sciences (fullfilled by CLS support classes)
Some requirements may be met by ACT, CLEP, and/or AP scores as designated by the university (contact the Admissions Office for more information).
General education requirements for the AAS degree can be taken prior to or concurrently with the CLT program. However, you must complete all AAS general education requirements to earn the CLT degree.
