about the program

Metropolis partnered with DSEU (Delhi Skills and Entrepreneurship University) under its corporate social responsibility in the year 2020-2021 for a three-year project to bridge the gap for health care professionals. Under this project Metropolis helped them set up state-of-the-art labs at DSEU Dwarka and Mira bai Campus to introduce the course on Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Technology (MLT). This program brings into focus an array of opportunities for students to acquire skills in the allied medical sciences, particularly diagnostics. This program ensures students have access to better, high-quality equipment during their program duration, which is currently utilized across the diagnostic industry.

  • The skilled health workforce doesn’t meet the minimum threshold of 22.8 skilled workers per 10,000 population.
