Education:

Pitt Community College Winterville, NC

Associate's Degree 05/2004

GPA: 3.8 of a maximum 4.0

Credits Earned: 76 Semester hours

Major: Associates in Applied Science Radiography

The Radiography curriculum prepares and trainees the graduate to be a radiographer, a skilled health care professional who uses radiation to produce images of the human body in a safe manner. The program teaches how the Radiation is produced and calculated and how to prevent over exposure and trained us to keep ourselves safe as well as those in the Radiation area. Course work includes clinical rotations to area health care facilities, radiographic exposure, image processing, radiographic procedures, physics 1 and physics II, pathology, patient care and management, radiation protection, quality assurance, anatomy and physiology, and radiobiology. I was evaluated by grades, communication and how I developed and spoke as a student Radiographer. I was also critiqued on my performance as a student. I graduated with an Associate’s Degree in applied Science. Upon completion, I passed The American Registry of Radiologic Technologist national exam and became a registered Radiographer.
