Jefferson School of Health Professions
Department of Radiologic Sciences
In 1936, Thomas Jefferson University Hospital became one of the first institutions in the nation to offer an accredited program in radiologic technology. Since then, professionalism and quality have been the hallmark of a Jefferson education.
Jefferson took the lead again when it began offering a Bachelor of Science degree in Radiologic Sciences programs more than 20 years ago. Today, students choose from 10 modalities to study.
In addition to the BS degree, JSHP offers an MS in Radiologic and Imaging Sciences and a BS to MS degree, as well as a PET/CT certificate, and part-time BS degrees for radiologic science professionals.
