Midland College offers a two-year Radiography program leading to the degree of associate of applied science. Radiographers operate x-ray machines in the diagnosis of disease, and may go on to specialize in CT scanning, MRI or other related fields. Satisfactory completion of the program qualifies the graduate to take the certifying examination of the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists and to apply for MRT certification by the Texas Department of State Health Services. This course is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiology Technology.

A balanced curriculum combines classroom and laboratory instruction with supervised practicums at local medical imaging centers. The mission of the Midland College Radiography Program is to provide for both the professional career development and the personal development of each student in the field of Radiography. A class is admitted each fall. Accepted students must take all radiography courses in sequential order and must maintain a minimum grade of “C” in all radiography courses to complete the program.

The degree and certificates in this field offered by Midland College and the courses needed to achieve these credentials are presented in the following sections. Students interested in this program should contact the Division office to obtain additional information and/or acquire a degree or certificate plan.
