Lehi Main Campus
The Radiography Technology program is the first step in your career as a Registered Radiologic Technologist. The primary responsibility of radiologic technologists is to create images of patients’ bodies using medical imaging equipment, such as X-ray, Fluoroscopy, and C-arm imaging. The images that you help create will help medical providers diagnose and treat injuries and diseases.
In this program you will be instructed in classroom and laboratory settings to learn on-the-job skills, and then apply that knowledge in a clinical setting. You will have the opportunity to gain experience in a variety of healthcare settings including -but not limited to- hospitals, urgent care, and family practice clinics. The experience you will gain at your clinical sites will put you on the path to a successful career as a Radiographic Technologist.

At MTECH, you will join an exclusive group of graduates who benefit from a commitment to excellence shared by everyone at the school. From instructors who deliver a relevant, industry-driven curriculum to academic counselors focused on ensuring you have the tools you need to succeed, we all share the same goal: your success as a student.
To apply to our Radiography Technology program, you must complete ONE of the following options regarding prerequisites:
Option 1
Option 2
Application deadlines can be found on this page under “Registration Availability”.
Fall start is February 15th to March 15th.
The program will be 1600 hours or approximately 16 months straight through. MTECH is a year round school. Since we are a year round school, we do not operate like normal colleges with semesters and breaks. At MTECH, we have short breaks (2-5 days long) 3-5 times a year. MTECH also gives students all major holidays off. See the MTECH academic calendar for more information.
We have clinical sites set up between Salt Lake City and Salem. Your clinical site will be chosen for you by the program coordinator and/or clinical supervisor.
This is the program page for the Radiography Technology program. You can find more information about the Limited X-ray Technology program here.
Yes, our program has the same curriculum requirements that the other programs use. Our program concentrates on the technical aspect of the program while other programs may require you to take courses that help you graduate with your degree. All programs, however, will educate their students so that they are prepared to take their national registry boards governed by the ARRT.
The Radiography Technology program is accredited by the Commission of the Council on Occupational Education (COE) and recognized by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists.
Yes, you can still apply to the program while you are finishing up the last of your requirements. You will need to have all requirements completed by the end of your Spring Semester (April/May/June). Your offer to the program will also be contingent based upon the grades you receive and/or the degree you complete.
Reach out to the College/University’s Alternate Modality program you are interested in and they will be able to tell you what is required to apply to their program.
MTECH doesn’t offer any alternate modality programs but our Radiography Technology program satisfies the Radiography Technology program requirement that most schools require.
