Offered by Health Science Programs:

Pre-Radiologic Technology

The following one-two year pre-professional program is based on the requirements for admission to the Division of Radiation Science Technology Education at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, Nebraska. A minimum 48 semester hours of pre-radiologic technology courses must be completed. The Radiologic Technology Program at UNMC is a two-year (72 credit hour) program. Competition for a place in this clinical program is keen and admission is not guaranteed. Therefore, students should also plan for a college major.

Take all of the following:
CHEM 160GS, General Chemistry - 3 hours (see prerequisites)
CHEM 160LGS, General Chemistry Laboratory - 1 hour
CSIS 130, Introduction to Computer Science - 3 hours
ENG 101GS, Expository Writing I - 3 hours
ENG 102GS, Expository Writing II - 3 hours
MATH 102*, College Algebra - 3 hours
PHYS 205GS, General Physics - 5 hours
SPCH 100GS, Fundamentals of Speech Communication - 3 hours
STAT 241, Elementary Statistics - 3 hours
*Students with sufficient preparation may enter the mathematics program at MATH 123.
Take 4 hours of biology from:
BIOL 103GS, General Biology - 4 hours
BIOL 107GS, General Zoology - 4 hours
BIOL 215GS, Human Physiology - 4 hours (Prereq: A college Biology course)
BIOL 225, Anatomy and Physiology - 4 hours (Prereq: CHEM 145 or CHEM 150 or CHEM 160; three years of high school science including biology and a minimum score of 20 on the ACT or equivalent or a college science course)
(It is recommended that students taking BIOL 225 plan to also take BIOL 226 as part of their elective hours.)
Take 6 hours of elective courses in the humanities and social sciences:
Appropriate options include courses in psychology, sociology, economics, history, political science, philosophy, anthropology, and art history.
Take 12 hours of elective courses:
Additional courses in the sciences are recommended. See your advisor.

Students should check with other specific schools of radiologic technology to which they intend to apply to ensure that any other requirements are fulfilled.
