Course summary

Studying radiography will give you the skills, resilience, and healthcare knowledge to use cutting-edge medical technology to capture diagnostic images. You will develop your clinical abilities for an exciting career in a dynamic healthcare environment providing outstanding patient centred care. Why choose this course?

  • 3rd in the UK for Radiography (Times Good University Guide, 2024)
  • Eligible students can apply for a non-repayable £5,000 NHS grant per academic year
  • Accredited by the Society of Radiographers
  • Approved by the Health and Care Professions Council
Medical imaging is used as a major diagnostic tool in the clinical setting including trauma, neurology, oncology, health screening and cardiac events. You will develop clinical experience and technical knowledge by using all modes of medical imaging to take accurate images. Imaging includes ionising radiation-based imaging such as computerised tomography (CT), mammography and nuclear medicine (NM), and non-ionising radiation-based imaging such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasound (US). You will study all aspects of radiographic science, anatomy, physiology and pathology and professional patient care both in theory and in practice. You will also learn about the factors that can affect diagnostic images and acquire the skills you need to clinically evaluate the resultant radiographic images. As you progress through your studies you will deepen your knowledge and expertise by looking at more complex imaging methods so that by year three of the programme you will be proficient in all graduate attributes required for registration as a Radiographer by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).
