Initiative TitleHire a full-time qualified faculty member to teach Microbiology for the Health Professions as a service course for Newburgh and Middletown as well as sections of Med Lab Tech Courses
Submitted in Previous Year(s)2010-11
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, RationaleThe Laboratory Technology Department currently has one full time faculty member and a department chair. Qualified part-time faculty are difficult to acquire especially since there is a shortage of medical laboratory professionals in the field and overtime is readily available. The Laboratory Technology Department provides the Microbiology for the Health Professions service course to both the Nursing Department and the Dental Hygiene Department. Enrollment in these courses in projected to increase and the number of sections of the course will need to increase to meet the needs, especially with the addition of the course being offered at the Newburgh Campus.
Consequences of this initiative not being fundedThe Nursing and Dental Hygiene Department students will be limited by the number of sections of the Microbiology of the Health Professions course and may take longer to complete their degree. Expansion of the Nursing program will not occur.
