Course structure 

The Diagnostic Radiography degree course is delivered full-time over three years. Theoretical modules are delivered in blocks alongside clinical placements.

Teaching at the university includes lectures, seminars, workshops, simulation and skills laboratory sessions.

You’ll go on placement to healthcare settings throughout each academic year to gain hands-on learning and assessment opportunities with a range of diagnostic imaging modalities. 

The final dissertation provides you with a project on a topic of your choice. 

Recognising that patients come first in everything the NHS does, and the values of the NHS constitution – respect, dignity, compassion and working together for service users – are embedded in our curriculum.

As a student on this course you’ll also get to participate in - hour-long sessions where students come together to listen to stories and share reflections in a supportive and confidential environment. The sessions offer the opportunity to reflect on the emotional aspects of clinical practice and are designed to support students and recent graduates working in complex settings.

Making sure that what you learn with us is relevant, up to date and what employers are looking for is our priority, so courses are reviewed and enhanced on an ongoing basis. When you have applied to us, you’ll be told about any new developments through .

Areas of study

Our Diagnostic Radiography degree will ensure you graduate as a competent Diagnostic Radiographer. You'll be able to obtain high quality diagnostic images using a range of complex imaging equipment such as X-rays, cross-sectional imaging methods (Computed Tomography or CT) and fluoroscopy. 

You’ll also have opportunities to gain experience in other imaging modalities for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), breast imaging and nuclear medicine. 

You’ll also experience working with a broad range of patients, from all ages, including with mental and physical disabilities, and the terminally ill.

Year 1 

Modules

• Introduction to Diagnostic Radiography

  This module introduces you to diagnostic radiographic practice, helping you to understand the patient pathway from referral to discharge. You'll begin to the clinical skills that will enable you to provide high-quality patient-focused care.

• Radiation Physics

  This module introduces radiation physics, radiographic equipment, radiation protection, legislation and radiobiology. You'll explore the principles of radiography equipment design and x-ray generation. You'll learn about the factors affecting radiation dose, its effects on the body and how to minimise these through good practice.

• Foundations of Professional Practice in Diagnostic Radiography

  Develop your understanding of the role of the radiographer in the clinical setting. You'll prepare for placement by examining professional standards, different types of communication, and relevant healthcare legislation and how it impacts on patient care.

• Introduction to Anatomy, Physiology and Pathophysiology

  Develop your understanding of human anatomy and function and anatomical relationships on radiographic imaging. You will develop a comprehensive knowledge of the normal anatomy and physiology of the musculoskeletal, respiratory and cardiovascular systems.

• Practice Learning Diagnostic Radiography 1

  Put diagnostic your radiography learning into practice in this clinical-based module. You'll develop your clinical and professional skills in a specified range of examinations and healthcare settings.

Year 2 

Modules

• Applied Anatomy, Physiology and Pathophysiology
• Professional Practice in Diagnostic Radiography
• Science and Technology in Diagnostic Radiography
• Research Methods in Healthcare
• Practice Learning Diagnostic Radiography 2

Year 3

Modules

• Image Interpretation
• Enhanced Professional Practice in Diagnostic Radiography
• Practice Learning Diagnostic Radiography 3
• Research-based Project

Placements

Placement learning is integrated into the degree as the 40-credit module, Practice Learning Diagnostic Radiography. The module is taken in each year and will account for around 50% of the degree.

There is a focus on competence, rather than a set number of hours or a set number of X-rays taken.

Clinical placements will be provided by our local trusts partners who are located throughout the South East in Sussex, Surrey and Kent. You will need to be prepared to travel the region for your placements to ensure exposure to a broad range of practice settings.

You will do shifts, including weekends, to ensure you are fully prepared for the realities of working in the healthcare sector upon graduation.

Placements will take place in a variety of diagnostic radiography settings in hospitals, community and private sector.

All areas of projectional radiography will be covered for theory and practice learning in general radiography, A&E (minor injuries/major trauma imaging), operating theatres, fluoroscopy, paediatrics and community settings.

There will also be opportunities for experience with CT, PET scanning, nuclear medicine, MRI, neuroradiography, interventional radiography, cardiac cath labs, ultrasound and contrast media.

You’ll be supported and overseen by a mentor in the healthcare setting.

Facilities for learning

The 香港六合彩资料 has a wide range of facilities to support the learning of our health students which enable students to develop their skills in real-life scenarios.

For this new course we have created a Clinical Imaging Suite for our diagnostic radiography students which includes:

• X-ray table and tube
• PACS/DICOM image store
• Clinical imaging simulation software.

In our well-stocked libraries you will have access to relevant books and journals to support your development as a radiographer.

Meet the team

Peter Dick, course leader

Peter Dick is a diagnostic radiographer still currently working within the NHS. Peter completed his  Diagnostic Radiography BSc(Hons) at the University of Hertfordshire and immediately started worked at a local hospital in East Sussex. After initially honing basic radiography skills he progressed into the Interventional Radiology and Cardiac Catheter Imaging teams providing precise imaging for delicate and often life-saving procedures. At one point he led these teams of specialist radiographers before shifting the focus of his career. 

In 2016 Peter completed a postgraduate diploma in Clinical Reporting allowing him to provide definitive reports on musculoskeletal x-rays followed by postgraduate certificates in chest and abdominal reporting. His clinical work entirely focuses on reporting images and he leads a team of 12 radiographers who also report. 

Peter’s career has always involved teaching radiography students but as his skill set increased this expanded to teaching more senior radiographers, other health professionals and trainee radiologists. Teaching more formally was a natural progression and he began working at the 香港六合彩资料 in 2021 alongside his clinical role. He was a part of the team involved in creation and validation of the course and is excited to see many more students study and qualify here.

Course fees

Additional funding support

UK students studying nursing, midwifery and some allied health professions subjects receive a non-repayable grant of at least £5,000 each academic year. Shortage specialisms, such as radiography, receive an additional £1,000. Find out more on the .

The fees listed here are for the first year of full-time study if you start your course in the academic year 2025–26.

You will pay fees for each year of your course. Some fees may increase each year.

UK undergraduate and some postgraduate fees are regulated by the UK government and increases will not be more than the maximum amount allowed. Course fees that are not regulated may increase each year by up to 5% or RPI (whichever is higher).

If you are studying part-time your fee will usually be calculated based on the number of modules that you take.
