Radiography and Medical Imaging Technology ( RMIT) | MUST - Misr University for Science & Technology

The program of Radiology and Medical Imaging Technology is composed of 128 credit hours. The academic year begins from the 1st of October of the following year; each academic year consists of two semesters. Each semester is extended over about three months and covers 16 credit hours
on average. The student studies the program for four years as follows:

First year, includes general courses supporting the basic knowledge of health science technology.
The Second year involves studying X-ray imaging technology such as X-ray anatomy, pathology, and patient positioning technique.
The third year, the students will study two modalities over the two-semester period, computed Tomography, and Ultrasound imaging technology.
Fourth-year, the student will gain knowledge about Magnetic Resonance Imaging Technology and its discipline. In the final semester, the student will take a final research project and advanced elective courses.

To obtain the degree of bachelor’s in Radiology and Medical Imaging Technology, the student
is required to complete 128 credit hours as follows:
• University Requirements: Share 12 Credit Hours at 9.4%
• College requirements: Shares 32 Credit Hours at 25%.
• Radiology and Medical Imaging Technology Core Courses: Shares 81 credit hours at a percentage of 63.3%.
• Elective Courses: shares 3 credit hours at a percentage of 2.3%

Attributes of the Graduate: The program graduate is distinguished by his competence and professionalism to assist in a healthy professional life to support the quantitative and qualitative deficiency in medical services in the healthcare sector.
The aim of the program is to:
1. Provide graduates students who function as competent diagnostic Radiographic Technologists with the application of state-of-the-art scientific techniques in medical imaging.
2. Enable graduates students who exhibit professional behaviors and practice under international standards for radiation protection of patients, staff, and the environment.
3. Enable graduates students who understand the importance of professional development and growth and who are socially- conscious, ethically competent, and have communication and leadership skills.
4. Prepare graduates students who demonstrate critical thinking and problem-solving skills with experience in research and projects planning and conduction.
