This is a vocational programme with a large amount of clinical practice throughout the three years. The aim of this programme is to equip you with the knowledge, skills and attributes you will need to meet the challenges of being a competent and caring diagnostic radiographer working at the centre of modern medicine. You will acquire the necessary anatomical structure and physiological function of the human body in order to support clinical radiographic practice. You will be introduced to a variety of clinical situations, giving context to numerous psychosocial, physical and environmental factors, which affect patient/radiographer interaction.
This programme is approved by the Society and College of Radiographers (SCoR) and approved by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) for the purpose of providing eligibility to apply for registration with the HCPC as a radiographer.
