健康物理科学副学士

爱达荷州立大学计划授予健康物理学理学学士学位的目的是培养具有放射生物学和生物学科学知识的个人，担任健康物理学技术员（有时称为放射控制技术员或RCT）的角色。适合此职业选择。相同的知识是国家辐射防护技术人员注册局（NRRPT）认证的基础。完成此计划的学生将开发基本技能，这些技能对于终身学习和健康物理学学科的进步至关重要。
ISU offers the A.S., B.S., and M.S. options in Health Physics. Health Physics, an applied science, is concerned with the protection of humans and their environment from the possible harmful effects of radiation while providing for its beneficial uses. Health Physics is a multi-disciplined profession that incorporates aspects of both the physical and biological sciences. The B.S. option in Health Physics will prepare the student for work in government, university, medical, or industrial settings dealing with such areas as operational radiation safety, regulatory issues, and environmental quality. Successful B.S. students receive a Bachelor of Science in Health Physics.<br><br>To declare a major in Health Physics, a student must have completed at least 24 semester hours and not be on probation. Declaration of major should be done as soon as possible in the student's program. For further details, please consult staff of the Department of Nuclear Engineering and Health Physics. The objective of the Idaho State University program that awards an Associate of Science in Health Physics is to develop an individual to assume the role of a health physics technician (sometimes referred to as Radiological Control Technician or RCT) with the knowledge in radiological and biological sciences appropriate for this career option. That same knowledge serves as the basis for certification by the National Registry of Radiation Protection Technologist (NRRPT). Students completing this program will develop the fundamental skills important to life-long learning and advancing within the discipline of Health Physics.
