The Bachelor of Science in Medical Radiology and Imaging Technology is a 4 and 3 year undergraduate programme designed to train students in modern diagnostic imaging techniques such as X-rays, CT scans, MRI, and ultrasound. The programme builds strong technical and clinical competence in imaging procedures, equipment handling, imaging interpretation, and patient safety, enabling students to support accurate diagnosis and medical monitoring. Through structured learning and practical exposure, students are prepared to assist radiologists and healthcare teams in real clinical environments.

Full-time
Candidates must have passed 10+2 (or equivalent) with a minimum of 40% in any stream from a recognised board.
The syllabus is organised semester-wise, covering medical imaging principles, radiographic techniques, and image analysis. Students progress towards advanced diagnostic procedures and imaging protocols.
1. Continuous & Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE)
CMRU emphasises learning by doing, with assessments built around practical activities, team projects, design thinking, and case studies. The CCE framework supports continuous assessment of students in both academic and soft-skill domains.
2. Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC)
The IQAC ensures credibility and consistency across evaluation mechanisms. It oversees assessment processes, modern pedagogical tools, and supports continuous improvement in academic delivery.
3. Student Portal & Transparency
Students have access to a dedicated Student Portal where attendance, CCE marks, and Internal Assessment Test (IAT) scores are updated and viewable in real time.
4. Fieldwork, Projects & Internships
University programmes are designed to include field projects, research components, and internships as part of their evaluation especially in disciplines where practical skills are necessary.
5. Feedback-Driven Iteration
CMRU routinely collects structured feedback from students, alumni, faculty, employers, and academic peers using it to refine both curriculum and assessment strategies.
Graduates will learn to:
No, NEET is not required for CMR University’s B.Sc MRIT programme. Admission is based on 10+2 (any stream) with a minimum of 40% marks from a recognised board — no entrance exam is needed.
No. A B.Sc MRIT graduate becomes a Radiology Technologist, not a doctor — they operate imaging equipment (X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound) and assist radiologists, who are separately qualified medical doctors (MBBS + MD Radiology).
It’s moderately technical — you’ll study anatomy, physics, and equipment handling alongside hands-on imaging practice. CMR’s programme balances theory with lab training and internships, making it manageable with consistent effort rather than “easy” or “hard” in absolute terms.
Pay varies by role, experience, and employer. Radiology Technologists typically see steady demand and reasonable starting salaries, with growth potential in specialised imaging roles (CT/MRI Technologist) or tele-radiology. For current, realistic figures, we’d recommend checking with CMR’s Placement Cell.
Pros: Strong job demand in hospitals and diagnostic centres, hands-on technical skills, shorter duration than medical degrees, clear career path (CT/MRI specialist, tele-radiology).
Cons: Involves radiation safety responsibilities, can be physically demanding (long shifts, patient handling), and requires continuous updating as imaging technology evolves.
Radiography specifically refers to X-ray-based imaging techniques. Radiology (as covered in CMR’s MRIT programme) is broader — it includes radiography plus CT, MRI, ultrasound, and fluoroscopy, covering the full range of diagnostic imaging technologies rather than X-rays alone.
