Graduate Certificate in Radiation Management
Lead the safe use of a vital resource
Ionising radiation—such as x-rays and gamma rays—helps us do many important things. It’s used in everything from disease diagnosis and treatment, to product sterilisation, soil moisture measurement, and structural integrity testing.
But it’s not without risk; if improperly managed, serious human and environmental health problems can arise. Consequently, those with this specialist skill set are in high demand worldwide.
What will you do?
Our Graduate Certificate in Radiation Management will equip you to lead workplace radiation safety across a broad spectrum of industries. Studied over 12 months part-time, it will give you a sound understanding of ionising radiation’s:
- detection and identification
- dose quantification
- health effects
- control in the event of an accident
- management in the environment.
You’ll also acquire:
- knowledge of all relevant regulatory bodies and guidelines
- valuable real-world experience through our hands-on experimental practicals.
Where could it take you?
Upon graduation you will be well prepared to manage radiation safety in a wide range of settings—anywhere from research institutes and laboratories, to mining and mineral processing, or government agencies and regulatory offices. Perhaps you’ll become an industrial radiographer with a large engineering firm and monitor the integrity of critical infrastructure.
