Practicum education in radiography provides opportunities for the student to apply theoretical principles of radiography, patient care, procedures, and radiation protection to practical experience. Students are required to travel to selected practicum sites throughout southern Minnesota. Students must have a valid driver’s license and/or provide their own form of transportation. Assignment to affiliate sites will take into account student preferences if they are consistent with practicum objectives and if space is available. Practicum assignments require commuting for all students.
Radiography students will be participating in 32-hour practicum weeks during Practicum semesters of the five-semester program at various practicum sites.
The practicum sites of the Riverland Radiography Program are as follows:
