rad-program@pima.eduIn Pima’s Radiologic Technology program, you’ll learn how to take X-ray images that help doctors see inside the body. You’ll also build important skills like working with technology, paying attention to detail, and communicating with patients and healthcare teams.
You’ll study in Pima’s new Health Professions Center of Excellence, which includes a hands-on Imaging Lab where you’ll practice using real equipment.
When you finish the program and earn your Associate of Applied Science degree, you’ll be ready to take the national certification exam through the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT).
