It contains-to the best extent possible-current information concerning: admissions and degree requirements; regulations; and course offerings.  \nAny part of this handbook may be changed or revoked by EIC without notice and may not serve as a binding obligation. EIC may also choose to add or delete course offerings or degree programs at anytime. It is intended to be a description of the policies, academic programs, degree requirements, and course offerings in effect for the current academic year. It should not be construed as an irrevocable contract between the student and the college. Failure to read the handbook does not excuse students from the regulations contained within.  \nEach student is responsible to seek the updated version through regular consultation with the Department Chairperson/ Dean of Academic Affairs and advisors.

In addition, the DM-BS program seeks to provide a student-centered education that promotes a commitment to quality imaging performance and develops critical thinking, practical communication skills, and cultural competencies necessary for a sonographer to work effectively in a diverse healthcare environment.  \nStudents are eligible to sit for the Sonography Principles and Instrumentation (SPI) examination of the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS) once they have passed the required Physics and Instrumentation courses. The SPI exam is the first of two required examinations that students must pass to earn their American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonographers (ARDMS) credentials. Graduates of this program are eligible to sit for the specialty exam/s. Changes in the current ARDMS prerequisite guidelines are not controlled by EIC, and the ARDMS may change it without notice.  \nProgram Objective  \nThe objective of Diagnostic Medical Sonography is to provide a competency-based education that combines theoretical (cognitive), professional, and ethical (affective) concepts and clinical practice (psychomotor) to prepare students for entry-level jobs as diagnostic medical sonographers.  \nStudent Learning Outcomes  \nThe DMS-BS graduate will demonstrate entry-level skills, knowledge, and behavior competence in procedural and clinical functions in non-invasive diagnostic medical sonography.  \n1.
