Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Radiotherapy and Oncology] From Sheffield Hallam University

Therapeutic radiographers use the latest technology to treat conditions including tumours and cancer. Half of all cancer patients are treated with radiotherapy. Designed in collaboration with employers, service users, students and graduates, this course leads to professional qualification as a therapy radiographer and eligibility to apply for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council.

You gain insight into all aspects of radiotherapy and learn from a lecturing team who are all qualified radiographers, many of whom are involved in research at a national level and are internationally renowned.

Radiotherapy treatment is a profession based around teamwork, so you study interprofessionally alongside students from other health disciplines including nurses, physiotherapists and diagnostic radiographers. This shared learning experience allows you to develop teamworking skills and understand the contribution different professionals make to the care of cancer patients.

You learn through:

• seminars and workshops

• self-directed study

• practice-based learning
