Show Arts, Letters and Science — Health Occupations Arts, Letters and Science — Health Occupations Science degree. Students must complete the following courses prior to their formal acceptance into the official class spring quarter: Microbiology 1, Health Occupations 1 and 3, Zoology 20, Photography 1, Mathematics—a minimum of 001 or a score of at least twenty-three on the math pre-test. Radiologic Technology 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 15 and 27 are completed during the Freshman year and 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and Health Occupations 5 are completed during the second year of study. Students who successfully complete the Radiologic Technology program are awarded the Associate of Science Degree. To become registered as a radiologic technologist with the American College of Radiology, individuals must complete the program and apply to the Registry to be examined to verify their professional competence. The Registry exam is usually given on the first Saturday in November of the second year. Courses of Instruction 1.

Calton, Medical Director The Department conducts a Respiratory Therapy program in affiliation with the McKay-Dee Hospital Center and St. Benedict's Hospital in Ogden and the Primary Children's, Latter-day Saint and University Hospitals in Salt Lake City. The curriculum is designed to prepare competent and adaptable respiratory therapists. Candidates for the program are enrolled as Pre-respiratory Therapy majors during the autumn and winter quarters of the freshman year. After each candidate has (1) presented a superior high school achievement record, (2) completed personal interviews and (3) completed the Pre-respiratory Therapy curriculum, Respiratory Therapy majors will be selected for enrollment in spring quarter. Licensed practical nurses, registered nurses and currently employed respiratory therapy technicians are requested to contact the Technical Director for evaluation of their previous programs and entrance requirements. For details of the application procedure, prospective candidates should contact the Technical Director or the Chairman of the Department. The curriculum is twenty-one months in length and students are enrolled in the program each quarter (first summer included) after official acceptance into the class (spring quarter of freshman year). The Respiratory Therapy major should comply with the College specific course and area requirements for the Associate of 154 155 |
