Imaging Science - Rochester Institute of Technology

Imaging Science from Rochester Institute of Technology is a Campus Master Communication Technologies degree that prepares you for a Communications career. Program Overview The objective of this program is to prepare students holding a bachelor?s degree in science or engineering for positions in research in the imaging industry, or in the application of various imaging modalities to problems in engineering and science. Formal course work includes consideration of the physics and chemistry of radiation-sensitive materials and processes, the applications of physical and geometrical optics to electro-optical systems, the mathematical evaluation of image forming systems, and the statistics of experimental design and quality control. Technical electives at the graduate level may be selected from courses offered in imaging science, color science, engineering, computer science, science, and mathematics. Both thesis and project options are available. In general, full-time supported students are required to pursue the thesis option, with the project option targeted to part-time students who can demonstrate that they have sufficient practical experience through their professional activities. Faculty within the Center for Imaging Science supervise thesis research in areas of the physics and chemistry of radiation-sensitive materials and processes, digital image processing, remote sensing, nanoimaging, electro-optical instrumentation, medical imaging , color imaging systems, and astronomical imaging . Interdisciplinary efforts are possible with the Kate Gleason College of Engineering and the College of Science. Tracks Students may choose from a variety of tracks or concentrations (e.g., digital image processing, medical imaging, electro-optical imaging systems, remote sensing, color imaging, optics, hard copy materials and processes, and nanoimaging). Additional tracks may be created for students interested in pursuing additional fields of study. Students must enroll in either the research thesis or graduate paper/project option at the beginning of their studies. View more details on Rochester Institute of Technology .
