Show approved school of X-Ray Technology as outlined by the Society of X-Ray Technicians of the American College of Radiology and the A.M.A. Weber State College confers an associate of science degree upon individuals successfully completing the program at the end of the second school year (Spring Quarter). However, in order to complete professional requirements individuals enrolled in the program must continue their training through the summer and autumn quarters of the ensuing year, at which time individuals will be qualified to take national examinations for the X-Ray Technologists certification.
