Radiography Curriculum

The challenging, high quality curriculum for the program is designed with courses in a specific sequence, progressively building students' expertise as they advance through the program.  All courses are delivered in Rochester.  Some coursework is delivered in a blended electronic and classroom format.  Academic coursework is coordinated with clinical rotations at Mayo Clinic to optimize the learning experience.  The upper-division curriculum is two years in length and does require a summer session between years three and four.  Grades in the required courses must be at least a C.  All courses in the track must be taken A-F, unless the course is only offered S-N. All students will participate in the same curriculum in years three and four.
