A Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Care affords excellent opportunities for professional growth and development. Midwestern State University is offering our RRT-to-BSRC completion program through distance education.  Courses are taught 100% online via Desire 2 Learn (D2L).
The Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Respiratory Care consists of 120 semester hours.  49 semester hours of academic foundation core curriculum work is required for the BSRC degree. Many, if not all of these hours may have been completed during your associate's program. These academic foundation courses may be taken at any appropriately accredited college or university and transferred to MSU. If all academic foundation courses have been completed, you will only be required to complete 10 upper-level respiratory courses (30 hours) through MSU as well as the writing proficiency requirement before graduating with your BSRC. You are granted an additional 39 semester hours for your RRT credential that will go towards your BSRC.
