 Abstract
The objective of this study was to suggest conducting a preliminary investigation into renaming the clinical laboratory science degree by comparing the names of this degree used in Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and the United States. In Korea, students who graduate from clinical laboratory science departments at universities are awarded a Bachelor of Science in Health Science, a Bachelor of Science, or a Bachelor of Clinical Laboratory Science, while graduates of clinical laboratory science departments at colleges receive an Associate Degree in Health Science or an Associate Degree in Clinical Laboratory Science. The Bachelor of Science in Clinical Laboratory Science and the Associate of Science in Clinical Laboratory Science are internationally accepted designations. They reflect the academic identity and professionalism of the occupation. The Bachelor of Science in Health Science and the Associate Degree in Health Science, being used by the Department of Clinical Laboratory Science in Korean schools, can be renamed to the Bachelor of Science in Clinical Laboratory Science and the Associate of Science in Clinical Laboratory Science, uniform names, respectively, through the revision of the school regulations.
Keywords : Associate of science, Bachelor of science, Clinical laboratory science, Degree, Health science
