Program Description

Labette Community College offers a 23 month program in Radiography leading to an Associate Degree in Applied Science. The program is monitored through accreditation by Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology. The standards for educational programs are stated in a document entitled "Standards for an Accredited Educational Program in Radiologic Sciences."

The purpose of the program is to prepare men and women to become qualified radiographers (x-ray technologists) and to meet the health care needs of Southeast Kansas and the surrounding areas.

The curriculum is designed to assure quality patient care, to meet the needs of an ever changing technical health care field, and to develop professional responsibility. The academic curriculum and clinical experience are both integral parts of the student's training. Area hospitals serve as clinical education settings for the program. Students must furnish their own transportation to the clinical education settings. Every effort will be made to place the student in clinical education setting close to his/her home.

Upon satisfactory completion of course work, students will be recommended to take the National Radiographer Examination administered by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists.
