Welcome to the Master of Science in Radiologic Sciences (MSRS) program!
Midwestern State University was the first educational institution in the United States to offer a discipline-specific graduate degree. Today, the MSRS program remains at the forefront of imaging and radiologic sciences education and provides three areas of concentration:

The specialized program of study is a hybrid format that allows working professionals to complete the degree in two years with minimal on-campus requirements. Although most of the coursework is completed online, there are six required on-campus visits for administration and education majors and 10 required on-campus visits for RA majors. RA majors are also required to complete extensive clinical requirements.

Competitive scholarships and an established mechanism to waive out-of-state tuition fees for applicants in Academic Common Market states are available to qualified applicants.

Medical imaging and radiologic sciences professionals from across the United States and worldwide are enrolled in the MSRS program at Midwestern State University and benefit from their colleagues' diverse experiences. In addition, the MSRS faculty members have many combined years of experience in the field and are actively involved in the profession.

The Master of Science in Radiologic Science (MSRS) program strives to be the premier provider of graduate radiologic sciences education by offering opportunities for development in education, research, leadership, and clinical practice. The program prepares leaders in medical imaging and therapy administration, education, and advanced clinical environments by:

  • Offering opportunities to work with graduate faculty in producing scholarly works, either through applied or original research projects;
  • Providing coursework where students can pursue scholarly writing, projects, presentations, and clinical experiences uniquely tailored to their interests (student-centered learning); and
  • Emboldening students to pursue other educational opportunities such as doctoral work, leadership development, and advanced clinical practice.
