Cancer is an important health problem in our country and one of the most important treatment methods in cancer treatment is radiotherapy. Considering the population in our country, the number of radiotherapy devices and technologies are not sufficient. In line with the health policies to be implemented in the upcoming period, it is planned to increase the number of high-tech devices. In addition, significant advances have been made in the technological field in radiotherapy in recent years, and the need for an assistant equipped to use these high-tech devices has become more evident and it is obvious that this gap will increase gradually. Since the radiation oncology department of our university is at world standards with its current technical equipment and teaching staff, it has the infrastructure to provide this education in the best conditions in our country.
The aim of the program is to train qualified personnel who can assist radiation oncologists and work in radiation oncology centers. Those who complete the program are awarded the Associate Degree diploma and the title of Radiotherapy Technician.
