Apply for Full-Time or Part-Time Enrollment
Full-time MIS students earn their degrees within twelve months, fast-tracking their imaging science careers. Vanderbilt University School of Medicine’s part-time option allows MIS students to earn their degrees while maintaining their busy lives: work, family, and other obligations that might not fit within a full-time program. Part-time students can use employee tuition benefits for VU and VUMC employees if they qualify.
Apply now for full-time (12 months) or part-time (24 months) enrollment.
