This Program comprises two academic years and one summer sessions (22 months). The academic program is divided into closely related periods of didactic and clinical practice. The Program’s Curriculum is designed in such a way that the balance between didactic and clinical requisites changes as the students progress in their training, increasing clinical responsibilities as the student approaches completion of the program. This system allows the student to better adapt to professional life and at the same time achieve a more ordered transition towards work entry level once he/she finishes training. After the student completes all academic and administrative requirements he/she will be eligible to sit at the Puerto Rico’s Radiology and Radiotherapy Technologists Examination Board and at the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists tests.

More about catalog year selection

Requirements printed in the academic catalog are those which must be satisfied for graduation. A student should follow the catalog for the academic calendar year in which the student enters CSM, registers and attends classes. Additionally, the student may choose to follow any catalog that most benefits him or her, so long as the student was enrolled in a class in that academic calendar year.

An catalog academic calendar year runs from Summer term (June) through the end of Spring term (May). For example, students entering CSM in August 2008 would follow the 2008-2010 Catalog requirements.

Any future changes to program requirements published in later versions of the catalog may not impact the student, with the following exceptions:
Changes as required by the academic department to include prerequisites, but not limited to changes in prerequisites.

If a student changes his or her academic program during the course of study, he or she must remain in the same catalog year if there has been no break of five years or more.

Should a student’s enrollment at CSM be interrupted by a break of five years or more, the catalog in effect when the student re-enters the college will be considered the year-of-entry catalog.
