| The Radiology Program will provide all qualified students who meet the established minimum criteria, the opportunity to complete an excellent educational program in Radiologic Technology. Radiologic technologists, also know as radiographers, provide patient services using imaging modalities at the request of physicians qualified to prescribe and/or perform radiologic procedures. A radiographer performs radiographic procedures, applies principles of radiation protection, evaluates radiographs for technical quality, exercises professional judgment and provides patient care. Radiographers can find employment in hospitals, clinics, private offices, industry and public health facilities. The program offers a balance of instruction in radiology courses and clinical experiences that assist in the development of clinical skills required for professional practice. Clinical experiences will be offered in diverse environments with current technological advances. The program will guide students to achieve their educational goal of becoming a radiographer and encourage personal and professional growth. Successful completion of the program requirements leads to an Associate of Applied Science degree. The program is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT). Prospective students must complete four prerequisite courses:
Students must also submit a Health Science Division Application for Admission to the Radiologic Technology Program (application available on this web site.) The program has developed and will maintain mutually rewarding relationships within the community that will benefit the students and the medical institutions. The program is fully accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) |
