Articulation agreements
Students who have completed 2 years at UTAS then commence in 2nd year of the 4 year BMRS(Med Imaging) course. Credit arrangements are in place and UTAS students gain credit for the first year of the 4 year BMRS(Med Imaging) course and for an addition research methodology subject. UTAS students can elect to undertake the 4 year BMRS(Nuclear Medicine) as of 2011 or 4 year BMRS(Radiation Therapy) course as of 2014.
Professional recognition
In September 2008, the Bachelor of Medical Radiation Science (Medcial Imaging) has again been awarded Full Accreditation for 5 years.
In 2013 Nuclear Medicine received accreditation and Medical Imaging and Radation Therapy are currently undertaking accrediation with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA)
