Courses Which Will Apply Towards the Required 30 hrs
The first group of courses listed below are Core Courses for the Radiography Program. Students in the Radiography Degree Completion Distance Program will take eight courses from that group. The student may take either MRI Physics & Procedures or CT Physics & Procedures. They will not be required to take both, but can if they so choose. The second group of courses are Elective Courses. Every student will have to take at least two elective courses from those listed below.
The courses listed below will allow the students to gain the depth and breadth of knowledge in Radiologic Sciences that they did not receive in previous course work. They also provide students with educational experiences that will expand their creative thinking and problem solving skills. The faculty believe this will prepare students for upper level positions in the current complex health care system including all aspects of Medical Imaging, whether it be in patient care, management, education, research or sales/marketing. This curriculum will also allow students to pursue advanced educational opportunities.
