The surgical technologist training program was first established in 1995 as an associated degree in surgical technology. It was first the faculty of Allied Medicine to recognize the importance of baccalaureate education in surgical technology and become the pioneer in the transition in the surgical technology education program by upgrading its education from an associated degree to a graduate program, bachelor of surgical technologist in Ilam University of Medical Sciences.
