Program Information
Radiation Therapy Program
The Department of Radiation Oncology hosts medical dosimetrists and radiation therapy students enrolled in the Jefferson College of Health Professions - Radiologic Sciences Programs.
Radiation therapy students experience the entire treatment process, from consultation to radiation delivery. Students are exposed to multiple imaging modalities, patient positioning devices, treatment machines and accessories. Students interact with dosimetrists, physicists, therapists, nurses, residents, and physicians to get the full experience of working in radiation oncology. Hands-on training is supplemented by a rigorous academic program, with multiple courses taught by members of the Division of Medical Physics.
