Master of Science – Diagnostic Imaging
Grow your career with the Master of Science in Diagnostic Imaging (MSDI) program. This three-year degree requires acceptance into NUHS’s full-time diagnostic imaging residency. Limited to one participant per year, the MSDI requires 51 credit hours of core and research courses. You will also complete a capstone project and residency.
Graduates can sit for qualifying exams to earn the Diplomate of the Chiropractic Board of Radiology (DACBR).
Program Overview
During the MSDI, you will complete a minimum of 4 credit hours per trimester. You can take these core and research courses in any sequence.
To graduate with your MS in Diagnostic Imaging, you must earn a grade of “C” or better in all courses. Faculty will assess your core courses at the end of each trimester with essay questions and practical view-box interpretation stations. Your research courses must have advisor-approved examinations, case study papers, and teaching file portfolios.
The MSDI also requires you to complete a written capstone project. You will present your capstone in front of the Capstone Project Committee for final approval.
In addition to your coursework, you will participate in daily residency activities. These can include: film readout and interpretation; radiological technology work; large and small-group teaching experiences; and personal study.
