Mission and Goals
JRCERT Standard One: Mission/Goals
The mission of the Radiologic Technology Program parallels the mission of Montgomery College. Students who enter and complete the Radiologic Technology program find their lives changed when they graduate with the skills needed to assume employment as a radiographer. Graduates of the program find employment locally as well as nationally, enriching the community by fulfilling the “service to the global community” and the “intellectual development through a commitment to the arts and sciences” aspects of the College’s mission. Students who graduate from the program will be known for their academic and clinical excellence, their communication skills (oral and written), critical thinking skills and their contribution as a member of the health care team.
Achievement of the Program’s mission is assessed by the degree to which the Program fulfills the goals that have been set:
Goal: Student successful completion of the program will be supported by the program’s educational environment

Goal: Students will demonstrate higher level cognitive, affective and psychomotor skills in the areas of critical thinking/problem solving skills and communication skills
