The Bachelor of Science in Medical Imaging is offered through a hybrid learning environment. The following are sample plans of study for each specialization. JPU’s hybrid learning environment allows students to receive all communication and course material and submit coursework through a web-based course management system. Students are required to participate in live weekly discussions for their classes per week as well as 3 days of on-site instruction (boot camp) each semester.
