General education courses help lay the foundation for the radiography courses and also serve to provide the student with a well-rounded education. The general education portion of the A.S. Radiography curriculum consists of approximately 27 credit hours. The courses may be taken on a full or part time basis and all courses required for the degree must be taken for a grade.
The courses listed to not include remedial classes (non-GPA bearing) or any other class a student may be required to take to meet admission and prerequisite criteria.
