Career Training Objective

Program Mission:
The Radiology profession is guided by the ASRT and ARRT Code of Ethics. Therefore, it is expected that each graduate, following successful completion of the certification and registration exam, will work within legal and ethical boundaries. This responsibility requires dedication to applying standards that are outlined within the Code of Ethics for the Radiologic Technologist. Radiography is also a dynamic discipline that requires growth, personally and professionally, to better prepare for future needs of the profession. These needs may vary, dependent not only in the environment where one is employed, but across the profession as it changes. While the Radiology program provides the requisite knowledge and skills to become competent as an entry-level R.T., each graduate should adopt the same enthusiasm for continuous self-improvement after graduation.
