The program is accredited by the American Medical Association and is affiliated with the following hospitals: Logan, McKay-Dee, St. Benedict's, Davis North, Lakeview, and L.D.S. The training is provided in an integrated manner through the utilization of on campus X-ray rooms, darkrooms, a radiation physics laboratory and clinical experience in Radiology departments of the affiliated hospitals. During the course of training, anatomy, radiographic procedures and positions are taught. The student will participate in clinical education within the affiliate hospitals throughout the training period. Education —The program is 26 months in length beginning in the fall of the first year and continues through the summer of both years. The student qualifies for an Associate of Applied Science degree upon completion of the required course work. Admission Process— (1) declare major as Radiologic Technology, (2) apply for acceptance to the radiography program (this is in addition to the 116 Radiologic Technology Weber State College admission application), (3) present a satisfactory high school and/or college achievement record (overall 2.0 grade point average), (4) complete the two quarters of pre-radiology classes with at least a "C" grade. All the above steps must be completed prior to December 1st of each year. Student selection is made during mid-Winter quarter. Selection is based on the college faculty and clinical coordinators. Employment Outlook — After completion of the program the student is eligible to take a national certification examination for radiologic technologists. A registered technologist has many opportunities in a hospital, clinic, or any of the related careers of Radiologic Technology. Related Careers — Included in this area are: Industrial x-ray, medical radiography, and related industries, such as product salesman, equipment repairs, equipment demonstrators, and manufacturer consultants. . 1 _ ■San Records Registrar Hfltertteptr B.
