Program Description

Diagnostic Medical Sonography plays a vital role in helping physicians diagnose and monitor a range of medical conditions, from pregnancy to heart disease and cancer. Sonographers use high-frequency sound waves or ultrasound to produce dynamic images of organs, tissues, or blood flow in the body. Diagnosis and treatment are often determined from those images. Our DMS program offers one-year advanced certificates so you can graduate quickly and enter the workforce. Online courses offer flexibility and convenience, while clinical rotations can potentially be completed wherever you live. If you want to join the healthcare field, interact with patients and make good money, this might be the career for you!

Candidates must have an associate degree or higher in a healthcare program to be eligible for our DMS program. We offer three options, allowing you to specialize in a specific area of sonography. You may choose a one-year advanced certificate in general sonography, cardiac sonography, or vascular sonography. All didactic coursework is completed online, followed by clinical in a facility that is close to your home.

About the School

Washburn is a top-notch university in an urban setting where students are becoming their best selves. Nestled in the heart of Topeka - the capital city with about 127 thousand residents - Washburn offers students from small towns a big-city feel while providing students from major metropolitan areas a more manageable environment.

Washburn's beautiful campus - on 160 acres - is easy to navigate with state-of-the-art facilities. Our Tech campus on Huntoon offers industry-standard programs leading to in-demand jobs. And with our low student/faculty ratio and small classes, you're going to get to know your professors.
