Bachelor of Science - Radiologic Sciences

Program Description

Radiologic science is the study of obtaining and interpreting medical images for medical diagnosis, assessment, and treatment of disease. At Northwest, faculty focus on teaching students basic principles of anatomy, the positioning and function of bones and muscles and their relationships within the human body; physiology, the study of the interrelationship between organs and organ systems; basic pharmacology and clinical and patient techniques.

With radiologic technologist positions requiring a degree, Northwest offers a unique two-year program that provides students with the foundation knowledge in requirements for admission to radiologic schools. Students then attend a radiology school for an additional two years to complete a bachelor’s degree.

Northwest has articulation agreements with Hillyard Technical Institute, Research Medical Center School of Radiologic Technology, and Saint Luke’s School of Radiologic Technology. With this partnership, students complete their degree as soon as 4 years, saving 18 to 24 months of additional schooling.
