Hospitals to offer contracts to UCC radiography students

Hospitals in the south of the country, which are hard-pressed to recruit radiographers, have committed to offering contracts to students who complete a new Masters in Diagnostic Radiography at University College Cork (UCC).

The South South West Hospital Group (SSWHG), which includes 10 hospitals, has also committed to sponsoring 15 radiography students for each of the two years of the new clinical MSc programme.
