Established in 1970 the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center School of Radiation Therapy is dedicated to preparing its students to become professional radiation therapists. Our students will learn to demonstrate the highest quality of technical expertise; provide competent, compassionate clinical care in serving their patients; and collaborate effectively with their colleagues.
Goals
We measure the success of our program by the extent to which we accomplish the following goals:
- Produce graduates who possess the knowledge and practical skills they need to provide accurate treatment planning and delivery.
- Provide students with the opportunity to develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills.
- Produce graduates who are effective communicators, both in writing and orally.
- Produce graduates who exhibit appropriate professional and ethical behavior for entry-level radiation therapy positions and demonstrate interest for professional development and goal.
- Produce graduates who complete the program and gain employment to meet the needs of the healthcare community.
