The following two year program is based on the requirements for admission to the Division of Radiation Science Technology Education at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, Nebraska. A minimum 48 hours of pre-nuclear medicine technology courses must be completed. The Nuclear Medicine Technology Program at UNMC is a two-year (72 credit hour) program. Competition for a place in this clinical program is intense and admission is not guaranteed. Therefore, students should also plan for a college major.
Appropriate options include courses in anthropology, art history, economics, history, political science, philosophy, psychology, and sociology.
These courses may include any science, math, humanities, and/social sciences. Additional courses in the sciences are recommended. See advisor.
Students should check with other specific schools of nuclear medicine technology to which they intend to apply to ensure that any other requirements are fulfilled.
