Radiologic Technology| Rad Tech Information Session |
| The next Rad Tech information session will be held on Monday, October 12, 2009 at 5 p.m. in RCF-242 (Transfer Center). Come learn more about admission requirements and the application process, including new prerequisite requirements for 2010 and beyond. |
Radiologic technology (Rad Tech) is a medical specialty (within the general field of Radiologic Science) that uses ionizing and nonionizing radiation to produce images of the tissues, organs, bones, and vessels that comprise the human body. These images can be recorded on film or displayed on a video monitor. As opposed to radiation therapy, which is used in the treatment of disease, radiologic technology produces images that enable the physician to examine virtually any part of the human body.
New Requirement for 2010
Students applying for the clinical portion of the Rad Tech program for the Summer 2010 clinical year and beyond will be required to complete PHYS-101 (Technical Physical Science) as an additional requirement for this program. PHYS-101 must be completed before or with the first clinical course, RADT-101. Students on the waiting list are also required to complete this course.
This program will now begin in the Summer Extended semester, starting with the 2010 clinical class.
