The 1-Year Bachelor's Program is offered on a full-time basis for 12 months. To be eligible, students must have all prerequisite credits and either a Bachelor's degree or proof of completion of an accredited program in medical imaging and radiation sciences.
2-Year Dual-Concentration Bachelor's

2 years (24 consecutive months, full-time)
About the Program
The Bureau of Labor Statistics says that radiologic technologists who are trained in multiple credentials have better job prospects than those with just one area of expertise. In our 2-Year Dual-Concentration Bachelor's Program, you study two imaging concentrations in 24 months.
The Dual-Concentration Program is for students with no education in the radiologic sciences to earn a BS in Medical Imaging & Radiation Sciences while acquiring training in a combination of concentrations. Students must consult an admissions counselor or a Medical Imaging & Radiation Sciences faculty member when choosing concentrations. We cannot guarantee acceptance to your second-year concentration of choice.
