Radiography (Partnership with Mid Michigan Community College)

The Radiography program is a collaborative program offered by an agreement between Kirtland Community College and Mid Michigan Community College. The program is designed to prepare graduates to function as members of the health team in hospitals, clinics, government and military installations, industry, and public health. In addition to classroom instruction and experience in the laboratory, the student will receive on-the-job practical education in radiology departments of local hospitals participating in the program.

The prerequisite and general education courses are taken at Kirtland Community College and can be completed in one year. The second year will be taken at Mid Michigan Community College. The third year will be a clinical internship at area hospitals. Program graduates are eligible to take the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists certification examination. Mid Michigan Community College confers the associate degree.

The collaborative program has many benefits for students at Kirtland including the following:

• Most general education and prerequisite courses can be taken at Kirtland. HUM-200 must be taken at Mid Michigan Community College.
• MMCC has a limited number of reserved seats for qualified Kirtland students ready to be admitted into the program.
• Kirtland students who are in the program and ready for their clinical internship in a hospital will be assigned to an in-district hospital.
• Contact the Student Success Center (ssc@kirtland.edu) or call 989-275-5000, ext. 280 for more information.
