放射技术应用科学副教授-放射治疗技术

放射治疗课程为期两年（四个学期，三个暑期课程），可获应用科学学士学位。放射疗法课程仅在白天提供，学生仅在秋季学期才被录取。毕业生有资格参加美国放射技术专家注册考试，成为注册放射治疗师并获得纽约州执照。放射治疗师主要通过使用各种复杂的治疗技术和设备，根据放射肿瘤学家的处方，通过应用电离辐射来治疗癌症患者。放射疗法计划将拿骚社区学院提供的技术和文科课程与多家附属医院和独立的癌症中心的校外临床教育相结合。学生将轮换到曼哈顿，皇后区，拿骚和萨福克郡的四种不同的临床环境。每次临床轮换可能需要向每位学生额外收取50美
Radiologic Tech: Radiation Therapy Technology (A.A.S.) - The Radiation Therapy program is a two-year (four semesters and three summer sessions) program leading to the Associate in Applied Science degree. Radiation Therapy courses are only offered during the day and students are admitted to the program during the Fall semester only. Graduates are eligible to take the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists examination to become Registered Radiation Therapists and obtain New York State Licensure. Radiation Therapists primarily treat cancer patients by applying ionizing radiation according to a radiation oncologist's prescription, using a variety of complex treatment techniques and equipment. The Radiation Therapy program combines technical and liberal arts courses given at Nassau Community College with off campus clinical education at various affiliated hospitals and free-standing cancer centers. Students will rotate to different clinical settings ranging throughout Manhattan, Queens, Nassau and Suffolk Counties. The program maintains a fully functional VERT lab (virtual simulation), a state-of-the-art reality training system in radiation therapy, and a physics lab for treatment planning.
