Overview

About this Degree

The Radiation Science major from Suffolk University emphasizes laboratory and research training rather than clinical training, making it ideal preparation for medical research careers and graduate study. By integrating the study of biology, radiation, physics, chemistry, and mathematics, our well-rounded program prepares you for a career in healthcare or any of the sciences. Majors in the program have the opportunity to complete an internship at a regional healthcare facility, including the possibility of interning at a top medical center, even though clinical training isn't a requirement of this program.

In addition to your core courses and labs, you'll take required courses in cancer care, math, physics, and biostatistics. Three electives will round out your education in this complex field.

Radiation Science graduates are working as clinical research assistants and radiation safety personnel, and pursuing graduate and certificate study in biology, medical dosimetry, health physics/radiation safety, and nursing. They are also found studying in dental and medical school and in physician assistant programs.
