Our Bachelor of Science degree program in Medical Imaging Science/Radiography takes two years (five or six consecutive semesters) to complete. All students are initially accepted into the radiography track and determination for a dual track in CT or MRI is made in the second semester of the junior year. All radiography graduates are eligible to take the national certification exam.
The program starts in the fall. Students rotate through clinical education settings in the Central New York region.
