The Radiology Technology Program is coordinated by the Health Sciences Department, and provides students with the educational and clinical training leading to an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) degree. The program has been approved by the New York State Department of Education.

The Radiology Technology program prepares students to enter the workforce as entry-level radiographers. Upon successful completion of state license/certification, graduates will be able to work in a variety of health care settings. Hospitals, nursing homes, outpatient radiography centers and research facilities are just a few examples where radiographers are employed.

Students applying to the Radiology Technology major are admitted to the pre-clinical phase of the program. To progress to the clinical phase of the program, students must apply for candidacy.
