Bachelor of Medical Imaging
Using x-rays and other equipment to take images of people's injuries and possible diseases you will learn how to perform radiography and understand how CT scanning, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, nuclear medicine, mammography, contribute to patient diagnosis and treatment.
You will also develop the communication skills needed to deal with patients in a compassionate way.
To meet the demanding standards the profession requires, our degree combines clinical practice with theory to make your training more valuable and assist with the transition from trainee stage to becoming a qualified Medical Radiation Technologist.
You will be on clinical placement for approximately 60 weeks during your studies. We have a wide range of clinical sites in cities around New Zealand.
In our most recent graduate survey, 100% of 2019 Bachelor of Medical Imaging graduates were in employment (Ara Graduate Outcome Survey, 2019).
