Programs of Study

Bachelor of Science (BS)

This upper-division program takes two years (five or six consecutive semesters) with students placed in one of three tracks at the end of the first semester: Radiography (X-ray); Radiography CT, or Radiography MR.

All radiography graduates are eligible to take the national certification exam, and ultrasound graduates are eligible to take the national registry exam.

All graduates are eligible to take national exams in their field. Students rotate through clinical education settings throughout New York State.

CT & MRI BPS Tracks take one calendar year (three semesters) to complete.
