Abstract : Radiologic Technology Education is in a dynamic state that has evolved substantially from analog to digital radiography and from on-the-job training program to formal education which are now standard. Clinical internship in the hospital setting is crucial where experience is one of the most prime opportunities for the Rad-Tech interns. The purpose of this study is to determine the student’s academic achievement and the students internship performance in the radiological sciences of the school year 2023-2024. By utilizing an explanatory research design, the study focusing in the Rad-Tech internship performance aligned with performance indicators such as: area preparation, patient care and management, patient positioning, and image acquisition and processing. The challenges faced by the students during internship in the radiological sciences were all challenge and interpreted as low which obtained the over-all mean p- value of 2.62. This means that the challenges were poor performance in the radiological sciences. Based on the findings of the study, the respondents need to be guided by the Clinical Instructors and the preceptors in all radiological sciences procedures such as Ultrasound, Computed Tomography Scan, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Nuclear Medicine, and Radiation Therapy.
