FACULTY RESEARCH ACTIVITY

 

In addition to activities in teaching and service, faculty in the MHS Medical Dosimetry program are also actively engaged in scholarship.  Research endeavors of the faculty have been disseminated in leading peer-
reviewed journals and textbooks.

 

Other scholarly activities include awards of research/training grants, consultation to equipment vendors, and continuance in clinical practice.

 

Faculty present their research at
national and regional professional meetings. They also serve as mentors and major advisors to graduate students working on thesis/projects in fulfillment of master degree requirements.
