Medical Labs are one of the most imperative aspects of medicine, for without it health care providers would not be able to properly diagnose patients – the most basic function of their job. At AUM, The Medical Laboratories program is designed to produce excellent medical laboratory technicians capable of providing crucial clinical information to a wide range of healthcare providers. Through the course, students will familiarize themselves with various laboratory techniques, procedures, and values that will allow them to not only properly test clinical samples, but also interpret and thoroughly analyze the results in an effort to extract valuable clinical information no matter the case study or medical laboratory field. They will be able to adequately communicate and discuss their findings in the form of presentations and scientific literature, as well exhibit self-critical attitudes that will allow them to find any points of weakness in their work and develop new and innovative methods of bettering research and data analysis. AUM Medical Labs graduates open themselves up to career opportunities in hospitals and different specialized medical centers, as well as in diagnostic, clinical, genetic, and forensic labs. They are also equipped to work in research, quality control, product and application specialties, education, and more.
Two of our recent Med Labs graduates – Zain Ghanameh and Lara Al-Samain – are pursuing higher education studies abroad in world-class universities. Zain is pursuing her Ph.D. in the University of Liverpool in the UK, and Lara is pursuing her MSc in Hungary. In addition, a handful of our graduates are now working in BioLabs and MedLabs, highly-esteemed and CAP accredited laboratories.

Nutritionists and Dietitians are responsible for supporting patients in food-related medical and health issues. In the Nutrition and Dietetics department at AUM, we are steadfast in our goal to produce well-educated and reliable medical professionals capable of bettering the physical and mental health of communities through various nutritional and diet-based avenues. Through this expertly crafted program, students will obtain life science skills that will allow them to diagnose nutritional disorders, exhibit a deep understanding and ability to recognize clinical, pathological, and dietary diseases, assess nutritional status by using various scientific techniques, and be able to plan and implement nutrition intervention on a national level. They will develop an in-depth understanding of the cultural diversity, physiological, and psychological health status of patients, which will allow them to evaluate, asses, and plan individual cases as accurately as possible. The Nutrition and Dietetics program at AUM is one of the top programs of if its kind in Jordan, and graduates from AUM open themselves up to career opportunities in medicine, nutritional consultancy, governmental bodies and organizations, education, research, quality control, PR, and more.
Our Nutrition and Dietetics graduates go on to achieve great things and take up some of the important roles in their respective fields. Many of our recent graduates are pursuing their MSc abroad in the UK, Sweden, and Greece, whereas others have secured field-related positions in renowned restaurants, five-star hotels, schools, marketing and social media, and, of course, in hospitals and health care centers as clinical dieticians.

Pharmacists are often the first people we go to for support when faced with a medical ailment. We rely on them to provide us with well-grounded medical advice, and are able to take the medicines they administer without fear or doubt. In the Pharmacy program at AUM, students will begin their journey towards offering people this honorable service and preserving life in local, regional, and global communities. The Pharmacy program at AUM provides not just the practical and scientific knowledge students need to become affluent pharmacists, but also develops the communication skills they will require when dealing with future patients. They will receive a fundamental education on basic, overarching sciences such as chemistry, biology, biochemistry, and statistics, which will act as the foundation for the rest of their education. In our state-of-the-art laboratories, students will be trained on how to extract, isolate, and purify pharmaceutical products from natural origins, as well as identify, classify, prepare, and chemically analyze pharmaceutical dosage. Ultimately, students will be able to recognize human disease and be able to predict individualized disease management and prevention plans, providing reliable pharmaceutical care to real-life patients. AUM Pharmacy graduates open themselves up to career opportunities in pharmacies, hospitals, and the pharmaceutical industry, as well as in primary care organizations, schools and universities, the military, and even world-class organizations such as the FDA.
The Pharmacy department at AUM is highly-regarded, ranking number 1 according to competency tests held by the HEAC. In addition – in affiliation with SERMIG, the Italian Brotherhood, physicians, volunteers, and several pharmaceutical companies – the department does its utmost to help local communities, providing weekly free medical service to the surrounding communities in Madaba. The Pharmacy department also gives 5th year students the opportunity to expand their knowledge in an educational trip to Europe, where they are able to meet with some of the top pharmaceutical companies and educational institutions in the world.
