Increased technology has prompted many hospitals to
seek to employ technologists who have been trained in two or more
skilled areas. This program provides an opportunity for radiologic
technology students to pursue cross-training in various areas of
advanced imaging. During different times of the year students may
be able to attend course sequences in modalities such as computed
tomography (CT), ultrasonography, cardiovascular-interventional
technology, mammography (M), or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),
or bone densitometry (BD).
Students are required to complete the core requirements with a minimum
grade point average of 2.75, and have either completed or been accepted
into a radiologic technology program before they will be eligible
for the major elective courses.
Determination of admission is based on: (1) completion of department
application form: (2) two references concerning professional characteristics
of applicant; (3) cumulative grade point average of at least 2.75
on a 4.0 scale; (4) a grade of "C" or above in all cognate courses;
and (5) demonstration of attitude and aptitude to perform as a professional
radiologic technologist which may include enrollment in or completion
of a radiologic technology education program.
