Division: Medical Imaging and Cardiopulmonary Sciences Program Director: Brad Johnson The Associate in Applied Science (AAS) in Radiologic Technology is a full-time program providing educational activities preparing its graduates for certification, licensure, and employment as radiographers in the healthcare community. Graduates may also advance in their profession by pursuing continuing education, additional certifications, or a bachelor's and/or master's degree in a related field. Radiologic technologists are the health care professionals who use medical imaging equipment to perform x-ray examinations in a variety of settings including, but not limited to, hospitals, physician's offices, clinics, medical imaging centers, surgical centers, and mobile imaging agencies. Technologists work in collaboration with other medical professionals to ensure high quality outcomes for the patient experience. The Radiologic Technology program is an intensive, rigorous course of study with hands-on clinical experiences. Students will perform patient care and are educated in anatomy, physiology, math, physics, patient positioning, examination techniques, equipment protocols, radiation safety, and radiation protection. Students in the program will be exposed to blood-borne pathogens and infectious diseases. The Radiologic Technology program is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) and graduates are eligible to apply for admission to the certification exam administered by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT).
