Hey all,

I am currently enrolled in a radiologic science program (2 year to become a radiographer) and I am interested in learning more about dosimetry. This is technically a second career path for me and I have a bachelor's degree in Business Administration (MIS). I am currently overlooking programs and I see many programs from certificate to masters programs. What is the difference between a certificate and a bachelor/masters? I know in radiology, for radiographers, there is technically no difference, unless you plan on going the route of management. I am very interested in becoming a dosimetrist, but I would rather take the route that will better prepare me to attain a career after the program. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
 
Most of us don't know in this forum and are poorly suited to answer your question (I certainly don't know). We are primarily either medical students interested in radiology or residents (physician trainees that graduated medical school) in radiology residency programs.

There are rad tech boards that could better answer your question - I do not believe there are any on this site. AuntMinnie.com has a subsection for technologists and reddit's subforum r/radiology is a mix of technologists and radiology residents and attendings, but primarily technologists.

Best of luck with this career pursuit!
