Holy Family

BSRS (Bachelor Degree Program)

Goals

  • Provide a curriculum for post-primary practice in radiologic science,
  • Develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills necessary for independent and supervisory functions in radiologic science, and
  • Develop student behaviors that promote continual professional development and growth.

The Program

The BSRS program is available on a full-time or part-time basis. The curriculum offers flexible scheduling to accommodate working radiologic science professionals in furthering their education. The 121 or 124-credit undergraduate degree programs build upon entry-level foundations, creating a bridge to advanced clinical practice and/or leadership.

Transfer Credit Evaluation

The University awards 44 semester hour credits for course content mastered through successful completion of an accredited radiography curriculum and attainment of ARRT certification. The University accepts ARRT certification in radiography as validation of entry-level knowledge. Transcripts for radiation therapy and nuclear medicine candidates will be evaluated on an individual basis. Transfer credit of core course credit is evaluated by the Academic Advising Center and approved by the Dean, School of Arts and Sciences and Radiologic Science Program Chair.

Requirements

  1. Current certification by American Registry of Radiologic Technologists and compliance with (CE) credit.
  2. Satisfy Holy Family ASRS curriculum to include the following courses: (2) core Writing, (2) core Natural Science (or (1) core Natural Science and (1) core elective), (1) core Speech, (1) core Mathematics, (1) core Knowledge of God, and BIOL 207, 207L, BIOL 208, 208L (29 credits).
