The current Radiologic Technology Program at Mesa State College is two years in length and includes classroom studies and clinical experience. Most of the classroom studies are during the fall and spring semesters of the first year of the program. Completing general education or required support courses before beginning the program does not decrease the length of the program. However, it does considerably decrease the semester credit hour load that will be necessary to graduate as proposed. Upon completion of the program the student receives an Associate of Applied Science degree. All classroom studies are conducted on the Mesa State campus. Clinical experience includes rotations at several of the following clinical facilities:

Skeleton Taking X-ray
  • St. Mary's Hospital, Grand Junction
  • Community Hospital, Grand Junction
  • Veterans Administration Medical Center, Grand Junction
  • Delta Memorial Hospital, Delta
  • Montrose Memorial Hospital, Montrose
  • Valley View Hospital, Glenwood Springs
  • Glenwood Medical Associates, Glenwood Springs
  • Rocky Mountain Orthopaedics, Grand Junction
  • Grand River Medical Center, Rifle

The structure of the Radiologic Technology Program requires the student to attend the eight week summer session between the first and second year of study. In addition, sometime during the second year, an eight week rotation in Delta, Montrose, Rifle, or Glenwood Springs is required.

Following successful completion of the Radiologic Technology Program the graduate is eligible to sit for the national registry examination administered by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. A passing score on this examination results in the granting of a certificate of registration that allows the privilege to use the title "Registered Technologist" and to use the abbreviation R.T. following the graduate's name.
