Shawnee State University’s Allied Health Science department has introduced a new certificate in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The 9-credit post-primary certificate program in MRI provides the didactic and clinical education that meets the structured educational and clinical requirement of the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists.
The program provides students with knowledge of image formation in topics related to electromagnetics, signal production, pulse sequences, system components, scanning techniques, patient safety, and clinical applications. The coursework, designed to be completed in one fall semester, is delivered completed online, with didactic coursework offered asynchronous and held in two, seven-week courses. The clinical course is held the entire 15 weeks of the semester and is designed to be flexible for the working technologists.
Applicants to the MRI certificate program must hold a current and valid American Registry of Radiologist Technologist certification. Enrollment for the Fall 2024 cohort is ongoing. To learn more, visit shawnee.edu/mri-certificate or contact Kristi Darnell at kdarnell@shawnee.edu.
