I have an undergraduate degree in a non-healthcare or non-science area. Can I apply to the RA or CT program?
The RA and CT professions are multi-disciplinary. RA and CT professionals often come with diverse backgrounds. Generally, most have either a science or technical background. RA and CT professionals are often required to understand scientific, engineering, or technical concepts. Yet, RA and CT Professionals also need skills in communication, negotiation, project management, and financial management, to name just a few. If you are interested in our program but you do not possess the science or technical background, we encourage you to seek out volunteer opportunities (such as at your local blood bank); and in your program application provide a description of your interest in this profession emphasizing your existing skills (such as experience with Project Management or Financial Management).
