Clinical Education
Clinical Evaluation
Students are provided clinical education through cooperative relationships with 26 cancer centers in the Central Texas region to provide a strong and diverse clinical foundation for the program. A major strength noted by the accreditation process has been the strong support of a large group of clinical supervisors.

The dedicated computerized treatment planning lab provides our students hands-on application on development of complex external beam radiation treatments. Students are provided two Dosimetry and Treatment Planning courses.
The Texas State Radiation Therapy Program Utilizes the Latest Technology to Boost Student Learning
VERTTM is a flight simulator for linear accelerator treatment machines. Treatments delivered on the real world machines can be virtually delivered on VERT. Visualization of the patient, CT images and structures provides detailed information regarding patient anatomy. No radiation dose means training is safe and being away from the clinic's treatment machine means the sessions are not time pressured. The highly visual nature of Vertual's products make learning an engaging and enjoyable experience.
