Your first step is to apply to Austin Community College.

Welcome to the Computed Tomography Program

Computed Tomography (CT) technologists use ionizing radiation to create three-dimensional images for diagnostic purposes. They work in hospitals, clinics, labs, and outpatient centers. Technologists working in CT produce cross-sectional x-rays using a rotating x-ray unit. A computer then uses these images to create a 3D image used for diagnosis.

Coursework will be completed in person and online. Specific details can be found on the program degree map.

ACC’s Computed Tomography certificate program is offered in the Fall and Spring semester. Learn more by following the links below, or check out the Computed Tomography FAQ.
