Triton College will be hosting a free Radiologic Technology Information Session on Thursday, Aug. 18, 1-2 p.m., in Room H-131. Those interested are encouraged to attend the session before applying to the program.  Mary Elkins, the Radiologic Program chairperson, explained that students will learn the process of admission and program acceptance during the information session. Discussion topics include prerequisite and general course information, as well as health requirements, clinical internships and tuition. Elkins will be conducting the presentation. Elkins said students who want to enter the field of radiologic technology should have a strong work ethic, be self-motivated and have a great attitude.  The duties of a radiologic technologist include administering an X-ray in an imaging department, either at a hospital or a clinic. Those who enter the field have great opportunity for growth. Additional certifications could lead to careers in sonography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT) or interventional radiography.  To register for the session, visit triton.edu/about/dept/academic/school-of-health-careers-public-service-programs/radiologic-technology/radiologic-technology-degree-information-session/.
