No, becoming a cardiologist typically requires advanced medical education, specialization, and training beyond a Bachelor's degree in Cardiac Technology (BSc Cardiac Technology).

However, individuals with a BSc in Cardiac Technology can work as cardiac technologists, assisting cardiologists in diagnostic procedures and patient care.
