I know what they do, and i know how much they mad…but i would like to know what schooling i need. I have read a few different answers and they are all contradictory.

Do i need to go to college for Radiography first and then take another two-year program…or something else?

THANKS!

If I’m really interested in it, should I just go for it and work hard to be the best, go to the best school, and hope I eventually find a job in the field?

I mean, would I probably be able to find a job within 2 years of graduation at least? I don’t mind if it takes a while, I just don’t want to NEVER find a job.

There is a school that is really hard to get into called UNMC, but if I could get in they have supplemental programs so I could also learn sonography and radiation therapy after I get my radiography degree. That way I can look for a radiography job right after I get my degree, and if I can’t find one I can continue to learn different things in the field so it would be easier for me to get a job in the future.

Should I give it a shot, or is the career outlook way too bad?

A degree in Radiography plus a certificate in Radiation Therapy or a degree in Radiation Therapy? http://www.radiologyworkers.com/radiology-blog/help-a-degree-in-radiography-plus-a-certificate-in-radiation-therapy-or-a-degree-in-radiation-therapy/ http://www.radiologyworkers.com/radiology-blog/help-a-degree-in-radiography-plus-a-certificate-in-radiation-therapy-or-a-degree-in-radiation-therapy/#comments Thu, 26 May 2011 08:34:58 +0000 Radiology Jobs http://www.radiologyworkers.com/radiology-blog/help-a-degree-in-radiography-plus-a-certificate-in-radiation-therapy-or-a-degree-in-radiation-therapy/ I’m so confused :) . I’m looking to start a new career and am interested in Radiation Therapy. The school I’m looking at offers an associates degree in Radiography, Radiation Therapy, and Radiation Therapy Specialist.

When researching, some say you should get a degree in Radiography and then a certificate in Radiation Therapy Specialist, others say to just go for the degree in Radiation Therapy. :/

Will going for Radiography plus RT certificate would offer more opportunities?
If I went just for the RT degree, will it be more difficult to find a job?
What are the pros and cons for each?
