Bachelor in Diagnostic Radiography Bsc Hons

Tuition comes to 16,750 GBP per year.

How can we see inside the human body to diagnose injury and disease without invasive intervention? Diagnostic radiography sits at the intersection of advanced technology and compassionate patient care, providing the essential images that guide clinical decision-making. This programme immerses you in the technical expertise required to operate sophisticated equipment—including X-ray, CT, and MRI scanners—while fostering the human skills necessary to support patients during some of their most vulnerable moments.

You will learn through a unique block teaching approach in our dedicated radiography suite, designed to mirror the clinical environments you will encounter in the workforce. By balancing rigorous academic study with substantial, hands-on clinical placements within NHS trusts starting from your first year, you will bridge the gap between theoretical physics and real-world pathology. This HCPC-approved degree is built for those who thrive in fast-paced healthcare settings and want to play a foundational role in the patient diagnostic journey.
