Resumen
INTRODUCTION
The Professional Master Program in Radiation Technology
in Health Sciences (MP-TRCS) of the Nuclear and Energy
Research Institute- IPEN/CNEN is a new program, started in
August 2019. It is the only graduation program in the country
to offer two nuclear reactors for educational purposes, for the
development of dissertations, in addition to providing radiopharmaceuticals
production in a nuclear reactor, in linear accelerator
for radioisotope production, as well light and lasers applications. In addition to the infrastructure, the program has multidisciplinary
training advisors working in an interdisciplinary manner
who use their vast experience in radiation applied to medicine
to guide students in a productive manner with a high degree of
excellence.
OBJECTIVES
The MP-TRCS aims to fulfil a growing demand at IPEN/
CNEN from professionals working in hospitals and clinics,
using ionizing and non-ionizing radiation.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
These students need a more dynamic course directed to the
practical professional activities. We have students from the
most diverse areas, such as medical doctors, biomedical
doctors working in clinical analyses, radiotherapy physicists,
physiotherapists, dentists specializing in imaging
diagnosis and laser, among others, participating in the front
line, who use radiation or assess its impact on their day-today
routine.
DISCUSSION AND RESULTS
The first students have already begin to present their dissertation.
The employability has increased among students
enrolled in the program.
CONCLUSION
These professionals bring their experience to the program,
which together with IPEN's academic structure and advisors,
result in skilled students who are finding numerous career
opportunities in the job market.
