 The
radiologic technology program prepares competent
entry-level radiographers who work under
the supervision of qualified radiologists
or physicians, perform imaging examinations,
process radiographic films, evaluate radiographic
equipment, manage quality assurance, provide
patient education relevant to specific imaging
procedures, and apply radiation protection
principles to patients, self, and others.
Most radiographers work in hospitals. Many,
however, find employment in specialized imaging
centers, urgent care clinics, private physician
offices, industry, and civil service/public
health centers.
The
radiologic technology program is accredited
by the Joint Review
Committee on Education
in Radiologic Technology. Graduates are eligible
to apply for examination by the American
Registry of Radiologic Technologists.
NOTE: All students enrolled in a nursing and allied
health program/certificate must complete
a criminal background check. Students with
a criminal record may be ineligible to participate
in a clinical course/rotation/practicum,
receive a professional licensure/registration,
or obtain employment in the health field.
