The Ultrasound Technology program has a library and classrooms with audiovisual teaching aids, textbooks, journals, anatomical charts, models, and e-library resources. The scan laboratory has ultrasound machines and an Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) machine.

The Ultrasound Technology Program is an Associate of Occupational Science Degree program. The student will receive didactic and clinical education in abdominal sonography-extended, small parts, obstetrics and gynecology, sonography, ultrasound physics, instrumentation, musculoskeletal (MSK), pediatric, neonatal, patient care, and vascular sonography. This training will be combined with General Education courses. The Instructor-to-Student ratio is 1:30 during residential lectures, 1:25 during online lectures, 1:10 in the laboratory, and 1:1 during clinical externships.

The program consists of eight (8) 12-week modules. During the program’s first module, students will take General Education courses up to 24 hours per week via online delivery. Students will continue taking General Education courses online for up to 24 hours per week for the first seven (7) weeks of the second program module. The workload consists of on-campus didactic/lab sessions, which include up to six (6) hours per day of instruction for up to three (3) days per week during the last five (5) weeks of the second module.

The subsequent two (2) modules (Modules III and IV or Modules V and VI, depending on the module sequence) consist of on-campus didactic/lab sessions only, including three (3) days per week of up to eight (8) hours per day of didactic instruction. After completing four (4) modules, students are generally expected to participate in clinical rotations two (2) days per week, up to eight (8) hours per day.

Students will continue to attend didactic/lab sessions on-campus three (3) days per week, up to eight (8) hours per day. In the last two (2) modules, students attend clinical rotations only for three to four (3–4) days per week and attend Master Scanning Lab courses once a month on days to be announced on a separate schedule.

The student receives 1,426 didactic and laboratory instruction and 960 clinical education hours, allowing them to apply the lecture topics to practical use. The curriculum provides students with the technical, clinical, and interpersonal skills necessary to succeed in this field. Furthermore, the program prepares students to take their ARDMS examinations.

An Associate of Science Degree in Ultrasound Technology is awarded upon program completion. The expected completion time for this program is 96 weeks, excluding holidays and vacation times. Class times can and may be rescheduled on an alternate day of the week (Sunday through Saturday) to ensure on-time program completion and fulfillment of required program hours.

Master Scanning Labs (MSL) may be scheduled at other campuses as needed and in no particular order.

Voluntary and Prudent Use Statement for Ultrasound Technology
The program ensures the voluntary and prudent use of students or other human subjects for non-clinical scanning. Students’ grades and evaluations are not affected by participation or non-participation.
