Program Summary

Haematology and Blood Transfusion Science is a specialized field of study that focuses on the science of blood, its components, and the diseases related to it. The course explores the composition and functions of blood, including red and white blood cells, platelets, and plasma, as well as the processes involved in blood clotting. Students learn about various blood disorders, such as anaemia, leukaemia, and haemophilia, and how to diagnose and manage them. Blood transfusion science forms an essential part of the course, where students understand the safe collection, processing, testing, and transfusion of blood and blood products. The course also covers immunohaematology, which deals with the study of blood group antigens and antibodies, and ensures compatibility between donor and recipient during transfusions. Practical training, laboratory techniques, and research in blood-related diseases and transfusion medicine are integral components, preparing students to work in clinical laboratories, hospitals, and blood banks. The curriculum often includes ethical considerations, safety protocols, and advancements in transfusion technology, equipping students with the knowledge required for handling complex medical situations involving blood.
