This 100% online degree completion program is designed for ARRT-certified radiologic technologists. No campus visits are required.
The degree requires 120 credit hours. An associate degree or coursework from a regionally accredited institution will count towards this total. Students can consult Mizzou’s transfer course equivalency site to better understand what coursework will transfer. Transfer students can also work with Mizzou Online’s pre-advising team to review previously earned credit and better understand the transfer process.
If you are a certified radiologic technologist who completed a certificate-based or a non-regionally accredited program, you may earn credit for your radiography coursework through departmental credit by examination testing. This allows prior education and clinical training to be recognized for degree completion.
