New Programs for Fall 2023

We’re excited to offer four new degree and certificate programs in some of the most in-demand fields. Contact us today to find out more.

Computed Tomography (CTC) Certificate Program

The image of success.

Working radiologic technologists may choose to apply to sit for the Computed Tomography registry examination offered by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT)*. Our Computed Tomography program is designed to give you the theoretical background and documented clinical experience necessary do that. Once you complete the program, you’ll be equipped to care for patients, obtain basic equipment knowledge to perform CT scan, identify common pathologies on scans, and more.

The program is based on the curriculum recommended by the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) and the structured education and clinical standards required by the ARRT. The didactic component of the curriculum will be delivered online using Canvas, consisting of lectures, discussions, assignments, and quizzes. The clinical component occurs in a real-world affiliated clinical setting or may be fulfilled for those already working in a CT environment.

*Belmont College does not guarantee that students will complete all clinical requirements for the ARRT exam.

  • Be CPR certified
