required to take to meet admission and prerequisite
criteria (e.g., PHSL-P 130 Human Biology).
Withdrawal and Reinstatement
Students in the Associate of Science degree program who
withdraw from the Clinical/Professional Program must
reapply for admission to the program. Withdrawal from
radiography major courses constitutes a disruption in
progress and requires that a student seek reinstatement
to the program.
Students desiring reinstatement must reapply within
a time frame that would allow the student timely
completion of the program. A written request must be
submitted at least six weeks prior to the term of desired
reentry. All requests for reentry are evaluated by the
program director on the basis of available resources,
and if appropriate, on the satisfactory completion of
any conditions and/or recommendations existing at the
time of withdrawal. Reinstatement to the IU South Bend
Radiography Clinical/Professional Program is not
guaranteed.
AWARDS
The program faculty recommend graduating students
with superior academic performance for degrees awarded
with distinction. The student with the highest GPA in the
Clinical/Professional Program is awarded the Edward
Mallinckrodt Award of Excellence. Also each year, an
outstanding student is presented the IU South Bend
Outstanding Student Award for Clinical Excellence.
Graduation Requirements
Satisfactory completion of 93+ credit hours, to include
27 credit hours of general-education courses and 66
credit hours of clinical/professional courses, must
be completed in compliance with the academic and
professional policies of the school and individual
programs in order to graduate. Students must also be in
attendance and actively involved in the university’s May
Commencement ceremonies.

(preradiography) with the goal of obtaining a
bachelor’s degree with advanced clinical professional
medical imaging instruction beyond radiography
within an intended field of study
• Students currently enrolled in an associate degree program
• Currently practicing registered radiographers (R.T.’s)
who want to obtain a bachelor’s degree for career
advancement with advanced specialized medical
imaging instruction
Program Objectives and Goals
The Bachelor of Science in Medical Imaging Technology
graduate at IU South Bend will:
• Acquire an outstanding level of instruction in the
areas of liberal arts education, didactic professional
course work, and clinical education that will have
encompassed the cognitive (problem solving and
critical thinking) psychomotor and affective domains
