The 放射技术 curriculum prepares students for careers as radiographers, who work under the supervision of medical radiologists or physicians in hospital radiology departments, 诊所, 商用x射线实验室, 或者医生办公室. The responsibility of the radiographer is to produce a radiographic (x-ray) image of the highest diagnostic quality of any designated area of the human body. It is from this image that the radiologist makes his or her interpretations.

The curriculum for the program covers six semesters. The first year is designed to provide the student with mathematics, 基础科学, general education courses, specialized courses in radiography and clinical education. The second year of the program consists of additional clinical education scheduled in affiliated medical centers along with advanced radiologic technology courses.

Experience in the radiology departments of the affiliated hospitals provides opportunity for the practical application of knowledge learned in the classroom. This experience in the hospital is a vital part of the program, since it enables you to assist in the handling of sick and injured patients as they undergo a wide variety of radiographic examinations.

Upon satisfactory completion of the course requirements, you are awarded the Associate in Applied Science and are eligible to apply for examination by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT).
