The Department of Hospital Technology includes Medical Technology, Radiologic (X-Ray) Technology curricula and a Dental Assistant Program. Other related courses of study are being developed to serve allied health services as careers for interested persons. The Department provides instruction in courses of study having a common content of knowledge and skills serving medical and dental sciences and which require specialized preparation by national accrediting agencies. The Associate of Science Degree will be given to students successfully completing programs of study in Radiologic Technology. The Bachelor of Science degree is awarded to individuals who fulfill requirements for the Medical Technology program. MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY Medical Technology Major—Students following careers in Medical Technology complete three years of study (minimum 138 hours credit) on campus plus a twelve-month senior year in an approved hospital School of Medical Technology. Included with the preceding are college basic and area requirements for the bachelor's degree and those of the American Society of Clinical Pathologists (ASCP), namely: Microbiology 50, 60, 158, 159, 161, 190 (3 credits); Chemistry 24, 25, 26, 107, 131, 132; Mathematics 14; Zoology 123, 124, 130; Physics 5. Medical Technology 151 through 159 are taken during the senior year in an affiliated hospital School of Medical Technology. To become registered as a Medical Technologist with the ASCP, individuals must apply to the Registry of Medical Technologists and be examined to verify their professional competence.
