career jump
hey guys! i'm 24 and living in a major city working as a MLT, and i'm intrigued at why nuc med has to offer! my current employer will pay for me to get my certificate since i already have a bachelors, and it's a 12-month long post-degree certificate in nuclear med. it's dirt cheap for me to go back anyhow (2k a semester at my local cc). just curious if anyone has any advice! is there a certain speciality i should focus on (MRI, CT, PET?), or is just the general nuc med certificate enough to suffice? what are career outlooks? is it still possible to do clinicals/school full-time and also work full-time? the program is 15 credits first semester, 16 the next, then clinicals and 2 capstone courses over the summer. am i setting myself up for failure? also to note, there are 3 prerequisite courses id need to do this summer before applying for the program (anatomy1&2 and med terminology)
