If you have a degree, but don’t have the career you want, our program is specifically designed for you. In less time than you might think and on a convenient schedule averaging just one day per week on campus, with our unique approach to Ultrasound Education, you could combine your Bachelors Degree or higher in any field with our Diagnostic Medical Sonography program and become a desirable candidate for positions in the field of Ultrasound.
Our programs focus on the most in-demand application area for sonography. You can concentrate on a General focus which includes both Abdominal and Obstetric and Gynecological applications. It provide exposure to Vascular Ultrasound, the third most common use of the technology.
There is little better than the feeling that comes from knowing that what you do for work actually makes a difference. Diagnostic Medical Sonographers know that feeling. Physicians recommend Ultrasounds as a diagnostic tool. Sonographers are specially trained to provide studies to physicians that enable them to diagnose health issues and treat them appropriately, or provide patients the comfort of knowing everything is ok. Whether it is the adult heart that is shown to be healthy, the improperly functioning heart valve that is caught in time, or the fetus whose sex is revealed to expectant parents, every study performed and every patient met is an achievement in helping others for the Sonographer.
Applicants must have a Bachelor’s or higher in any subject to qualify for this program.
