Program details

Overview

Diagnostic Radiography Technology is a technical Diploma of College Studies (DEC technique, 142.H0) offered at Cegep de Sainte-Foy over three years, with intake in the fall term only. The program develops skills in basic diagnostic-imaging techniques as well as more recent medical-imaging technologies, training students to produce diagnostic images of anatomical structures from physicians' orders. Graduates work as medical-imaging technologists in the diagnostic-radiography field, with the program covering practice areas such as general radiography, bone densitometry, mammography, fluoroscopy, angiography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Cegep de Sainte-Foy positions itself as a regional health-training hub in eastern Quebec, offering eight technical health programs alongside Centre S, a clinical-simulation centre built to reproduce hospital environments for hands-on practice. The program suits students interested in medical imaging and diagnostic technology who want to work as part of a hospital or clinical health-care team, applying technical and scientific skills directly to patient diagnosis across a range of imaging specialties.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission requires meeting Cegep de Sainte-Foy's general CEGEP admission conditions, as published on the college's admission page, plus one of two science-and-math prerequisite pathways: Secondary 4 CST Mathematics together with Secondary 4 Science and Technology/Environmental Science and Technology (or Applied Technical Science/Environmental Science); or, under the older curriculum, Mathematics 426 together with Physics 534. No minimum grade is published for these courses, and applicants meeting the stated requirements are generally admitted. Because the program includes clinical placements, admitted students must meet the vaccination requirements of the placement sites and pass a criminal record check required by health and social-services institutions; graduates must also register with the provincial technologist order to practise. No French or English language-proficiency test is stated. The program is offered starting in the Fall term only.

Application Details

Start Date: September
Application Deadline: Cegep de Sainte-Foy admits through the regional SRACQ portal (sracq.qc.ca). For domestic (Quebec) applicants, winter 2027 entry closes 1 November 2026 (round 1), 1 December 2026 (round 2) or 1 January 2027 (round 3), while fall 2027 entry closes 1 March, 1 May, 1 June or 1 August 2027 across four rounds, with a further late-admission window for select programmes arranged directly with the college near the start of the fall term. International applicants apply through the same SRACQ system but on a single fixed window for fall 2027 entry: applications open 1 September 2026 and close 1 February 2027, and only a short list of named programmes (including its early-childhood-education DEC) is open to international admission; no separate international winter deadline is published. None of these dates are rolling. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
