UC Lab Coat Ceremony


Wednesday, November 29th marked a special moment for 79 University City High School seniors who participated in the Lab Coat Ceremony that was held at the First Baptist Church off of Governor Drive.  These seniors are currently participating in the Patient Care and Biotechnology Pathways at University City High School. This is a four course Biomedical Project Lead the Way sequence over their high school tenure.  This is the largest number of students for this ceremony, which “packed the house.”   The White Coat Ceremony celebrates a “rite of passage” for seniors as they prepare to participate in various internships during the upcoming spring semester.  These students will spend time in various clinical settings ranging from UCSD Hospital, VA Hospital, biomedical companies and even local vet clinics.  This event acknowledges the hard work accomplished by the students who participate in the University City High School Biomedical platinum pathways program.
