Master of Science [M.S] [Molecular Imaging and Therapeutics] From Saint Louis University

SLU’s graduate degree program in molecular imaging and therapeutics is typically earned in 12 to 15 months. Our rigorous curriculum combines a collaborative research component with individual areas of imaging and therapeutic sciences. SLU’s MIT program is one of the only programs of its kind nationwide. 

The program is offered through Doisy College of Health Sciences and allows students to select from a variety of tracks: magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine technology and radiation therapy. The chosen track must be different than the student's previous imaging/radiologic science discipline.

SLU’s molecular imaging and therapeutics program includes a required leadership and advanced scholarly component. You will present material in each course that combines your previous imaging/radiologic science discipline and your new area of study. The master’s seminars I, II and III are sequentially in the fall, spring and then the summer. Working under the direction of a scholarly mentor, you will produce a project suitable for publication in a peer-reviewed journal or scholarly equivalent.

In SLU’s molecular imaging and therapeutics master’s program, you will choose from three concentration options: magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine technology and radiation therapy. The option you choose must be different than your previous imaging/radiologic science discipline. No matter which you choose you will:

• Possess the expertise and knowledge to assist in the advancement of the molecular imaging science.

• Have expertise in multiple areas of imaging and radiation therapy and be ready to contribute to the growth and development of molecular imaging and therapeutics.

• Gain applicable comprehension of multiple molecular imaging modalities and therapies.
