Clinical education is provided in cooperating hospitals. Of a 40-hour/week schedule, students spend approximately one-third of their time in professional and general education courses at the college, and the remaining two-thirds in the college laboratory or in the hospital.

Upon completion of the academic and clinical competencies required for the program, the graduate is eligible to sit for the examination of the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists for certification and New York State licensure.
