Students in the innovative diagnostic imaging program concentrate on the hard sciences, elements of patient care and technical training to prepare for employment in health care centers or for careers in education, research and sales and marketing.

A thorough education and many hours in Quinnipiac’s laboratories helps students develop a deep understanding of scientific theory as well as the people and technology skills essential for high-quality patient care.

Students gain clinical field experience at major health care centers like Yale-New Haven Hospital, the Hospital of St. Raphael, St. Francis Hospital and Medical Center and at private medical practices and radiology clinics.

Summer field experience sends our diagnostic imaging majors as far away as Peru, where they’ll study noninvasive techniques to analyze archeological artifacts.

By the end of their third year, students are prepared for national credentialing examinations, which will qualify them to actually work in the profession during their senior year, as they explore advanced imaging and management at Quinnipiac.
