The degree programme for Radiation Technology at FHS was developed from the academy for radiological and technical services at the Salzburg University Hospital. Due to a change of jurisdiction in 2005, it became possible to hold the training for radio-technicians (formerly: radiological technical assistants) at an advanced technical college.
In training, oriented toward the practical, the students will learn the basics, the connections and the practical uses of ionising radiation and other imaging technologies for the examination and treatment of people.
Process and quality control, technical knowledge as well as information and communication skills are major components of this course.
An education based on good foundations, focused on practical experience, is at the heart of the training concept. This takes place, for the most part, at the University Clinics of Radio-diagnostics, Nuclear Medicine and Radiotherapy at the Salzburg University Hospital.
Our goal is high practical competence in all our graduates, providing a contribution to optimal health care on the one hand, and participating in research and development on the other. The aim is to fulfil all the future needs of a highly sophisticated health care system and adjoining areas including all their quality and economical aspects.
