Program Outline


Degree Overview:

Radiation is an valuable tool in health care, but it can also be dangerous, and we need people like you to keep patients safe. We can teach you about the risks and benefits of radiation, and help prepare you for a career as a health physicist. To get started, you'll take courses that cover topics such as radiation biophysics, hazard evaluation, environmental radioactivity, nuclear physics, radiobiology, and medical radiology. Then, we'll familiarize you with the fundamentals of quality patient care with an offering of professional development electives. Finally, you and a faculty mentor can identify projects that suit your goals and interests, so you can get some research under your belt. In the end, you will have had training and experiences that will be beneficial to you as you pursue a career in a medical facility, defense plant, higher education institution, or elsewhere.
