Bachelor Degree Program Offered at BCC

Bellevue Community College is proud to offer the first bachelor of applied science (BAS) degree program in radiation and imaging sciences in Washington State.  If you are a practicing professional in the radiation or imaging sciences, or a graduate of a program in radiologic technology, diagnostic ultrasound, radiation therapy, or nuclear medicine, BCC’s new degree program offers you the opportunity to get a bachelor degree in your field and prepare for jobs that require advanced certifications or supervisory and management skills.

Bellevue Community College has received funding through a grant awarded under the President’s Community-Based Job Training Grants, as implemented by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employment & Training Administration to add two new concentrations in Medical Dosimetry and Radiologist Assistant.
