Bachelor of Medical Radiation Science (Honours) in Medical Imaging
Program Overview
This is the only honour's degree of its kind in South Australia, preparing you for a rewarding career in the highly specialised field of medical imaging.
Start your unstoppable career as a professional diagnostic radiographer, responsible for producing high quality medical images using various technologies and types of radiation to monitor and help diagnose injuries and illnesses.
This honour's degree is only available to students studying the Bachelor of Medical Radiation Science (Medical Imaging) who have met the grade point average (GPA) requirements and have been made an offer into the degree.
What you'll learn
Medical imaging professionals are responsible for producing high quality medical images using various technologies and types of radiation to monitor and diagnose injuries and illnesses. Their work includes general radiography such as x-rays, fluoroscopy, theatre or emergency imaging.
Throughout your degree, you’ll learn how to produce optimal images, using complex equipment while caring for patients. You’ll also complement your clinical skills with valuable interpersonal skills, such as communication and collaboration.
During your first year, you’ll focus on basic sciences at the core of the study and practice of medical radiation science. You’ll cover a range of topics, including anatomy, physiology, pathology and radiation physics. These core subjects introduce you to the scientific principles surrounding medical radiation.
You’ll apply these concepts to professional practice through clinical placements, which begin in your second year and continue through third and fourth years. You’ll also take part in regular pre-clinical preparation workshops to further extend your skills as you move into advanced areas of practice.
As part of the honour’s component, you’ll complete an honour’s project under the supervision of an experienced researcher, and report on this project through a thesis and oral presentation. This will allow you to develop advanced research skills and complete training courses in research methods and ethics.
