RADIOLOGIC TECHNOLOGY
The Radiologic Technology program at the Christ Hospital School of Radiography sponsored by Christ Hospital has much to offer. The program gives the student ample opportunity to prove themselves capable of handling one of the most important aspects of health care today. It can open doors to a fascinating life-long career for those who have the necessary ability and are willing to work hard. The role of the Radiographer is to use ionizing radiation in assisting the physician (Radiologist) in the diagnosis and treatment of disease and injury. The field of Radiography is expanding at a dynamic pace. Radiographers may find employment in hospitals, clinics, and imaging centers. New and sophisticated equipment offers the graduate Radiographer daily challenges. Opportunities for advancement to supervisory, administrative and teaching positions are available to graduates with qualified academic backgrounds.
A 24 month education program of 40 hours per week is offered in the Science of Radiologic Technology beginning in September. Each week is divided in 2 sections consisting of approximately 12 hours of formal classroom work and 28 hours of clinical education. The year consists of 49 weeks making up to three semesters. Three weeks vacation is awarded per year at the discretion of the Program Director.
Classes are in session weekly from the onset except the last week in December, the first week in January, and during vacation periods. Classes are limited during June, July, and August. During the summer and holiday breaks, the students will work a regular 40 hour week meeting the requirements of their clinical education.
Please refer all telephone calls for information to the school's office only, not the Radiology Department. The school will accept calls between the hours of 7:30 A.M. to 3:30 P.M., Monday through Friday at (201) 795-8246.
MISSION STATEMENT OF THE SCHOOL
