MRI Technologist Jobs in Minnesota: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a mri technologist in Minnesota?
Minnesota does not issue a separate state license for mri technologists, so the standard path is completing an accredited radiologic technology or MRI-specific program and earning ARRT MRI registration through the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. Most Minnesota employers require ARRT registration before start date. Programs are offered at institutions like the College of Saint Benedict, Arrowhead Community College, and several metro-area technical colleges. Graduates apply directly to hospital systems and imaging centers once credentialed.
How much do MRI technologists make in Minnesota?
MRI technologists in Minnesota earn a median of about $100,900 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $83,200 for the lowest 10% to over $111,600 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire mri technologists in Minnesota?
Companies currently hiring mri technologists in Minnesota include Allina Health, HealthPartners, and Fairview Health Services, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Minnesota's concentration of large integrated health systems means many openings come from employers that operate multiple facilities across the Twin Cities metro, Rochester, and regional hubs rather than single standalone clinics.
Which Minnesota cities have the most mri technologist jobs?
Minneapolis, Saint Paul, and Rochester consistently have the most mri technologist openings in Minnesota. Minneapolis-Saint Paul leads because of the density of major health systems and academic medical centers headquartered there, while Rochester's volume is driven largely by Mayo Clinic and its affiliated campuses, and Duluth draws demand from regional referral hospitals serving northeastern Minnesota and the border region.
Are there remote mri technologist jobs in Minnesota?
Yes, but they're rare. MRI technology is a hands-on clinical role that requires operating scanner equipment and working directly with patients, so the vast majority of positions are fully on-site. About 0% of mri technologist openings tied to Minnesota are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those limited exceptions tend to involve teleradiology support, quality assurance review, or training and education roles rather than direct patient scanning.
How can I get hired as a mri technologist in Minnesota with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying to new-graduate or student technologist programs at large Minnesota health systems. Mayo Clinic, Allina Health, and M Health Fairview each run structured onboarding tracks that accept candidates completing accreditation requirements, and many Twin Cities imaging centers hire MRI techs from adjacent roles such as radiologic technologist or CT technologist. Completing your ARRT MRI registration before applying, even without substantial scan volume, is the clearest signal that moves a new-grad application forward in Minnesota.
Where can I find and apply to mri technologist jobs in Minnesota?
You can find and apply to mri technologist jobs in Minnesota on Migrate Mate, which lists current Minnesota openings updated regularly. Search the listings for roles that match your credentials and experience, then apply directly to the ones that fit. No profile creation is required to view or apply to the positions shown.
