匹茲堡大學(xué)布拉德福德分校

There is a national shortage of radiographers. And that shortage is expected to continue. If you think you'd like a career as a radiographer, our bachelor's degree program is for you.

As an incoming freshman, you'll spend your first two years taking courses through the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford on campus. During your third and fourth years, you'll study at the School of Radiography at Bradford Regional Medical Center, our local hospital. If you are already a certified RT, you will receive 50 credits from Pitt-Bradford when you are admitted to the program. And then, you can attend the University on a part-time or full-time basis to complete the requirements for your BS degree.

Qualified RTs enter the workforce as radiographers but often expand their skills and obtain advanced certifications in CT scanning, mammography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRIs) ultrasound and other developing technologies.

Certified radiographers work in hospitals, physician offices and out-patient imaging centers. They operate some of healthcare's most sophisticated technology.
