The School of Diagnostic Medical Sonography is a hospital-based clinical training program sponsored by UW Hospitals and Clinics in Madison, Wis.

The school holds formal affiliation agreements with multiple colleges and universities to provide professional study in the art and science of diagnostic ultrasound to baccalaureate of science candidates from those institutions.

Our program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP), upon the recommendation of the Joint Review Committee on Education in Diagnostic Medical Sonography (JRC-DMS).

Students complete their prerequisite course work with one of our affiliates, and their professional education at UW Hospitals and Clinics. Students elect to pursue one of two options: Echocardiography/Vascular Sonography or General/Vascular Sonography.

The UW Hospitals and Clinics School of Diagnostic Medical Sonography does not practice open enrollment and we do not maintain a waiting list.
