Choose your pathway

Several pathways are open for application now, and others are taking expressions of interest.

The three qualifications explained

Each of the three awards has its own course page and application code:

Students can also enter these pathways through micro-credentials of 5 and 10 credits.

The length of study varies depending on the individual qualification, for example the Postgraduate Certificate is about 6 months in duration. The Diploma is 1 year and the Master's is between 18 months and 2 years.

Gaining a post-registration qualification, such as a PgC/PgD/MSc in MIRS, is likely to provide opportunities to progress your career. This could be as a senior radiographer or clinical specialist within your chosen pathway area. Such a qualification may also be useful in obtaining employment within academia or industry.
