Medical Imaging Sciences

    Overview

    Offered in conjunction with Rutgers School of Health Related Professions, the medical imaging sciences degree opens the doors for students to use technology to produce images of structures within the human body.

    Students must complete a three-year (24 course units) pre-professional component at Bloomfield College and a 15-month professional component at Rutgers University. Bloomfield College students who have earned 24 c.u.s by completing the General Education courses, as well as the professional courses listed, may be admitted to Rutgers University for the remaining professional courses provided they have:

    • Been in residence at Bloomfield College for a minimum of 8 courses
    • Achieved a minimum overall grade point average of 2.85
    • Received grades of C or better in all required science and mathematics courses.

    Please review therecommended sequence of courses.

    Additional Information

    The required two(2) c.u.s addressing the Scientific and Technical Skills competency are waived because the major’s introductory courses address this competency but are not general education courses. Also, as a three-year plus program, majors in MIS may count two of the course units in their list of major requirements as general education electives and take only one Writing Intensive course in the general education electives

    ** Students are required to be certified in CPR prior to enrollment at Rutgers University.

    Students in the Medical Imaging Sciences major must take the following professional courses prior to matriculation at Rutgers University.**

    • Read and interpret scientific articles and literature appropriate to their level of study.
    • Use scientific and mathematical language and notation precisely and appropriately.
    • Present clear, accurate and well-structured scientific reports.
    • Use technology effectively in gathering, interpreting, and presenting data and solving problems.
