Radiography

The following hospitals are affiliated with PCC’s Radiography program. Included is a description of each hospital’s facilities and what each is looking for in a student intern. Applicants are encouraged to set up a job shadowing experience at a clinic geographically located near their home. Applicants should only select one site to complete their shadowing in order to prevent overloading our clinical sites.

If you completed job shadowing for a previous cycle, you can use the same documentation for the current application. Please check documentation and uploads for accuracy and completion. Additional details can be found on the job shadowing form.
