Department of Biomedical Imaging and Radiological Sciences

Department of Biomedical Imaging and Radiological Sciences

In 1990, the university established the Radiological Technology Division under the Department of Medical Technology. In 1998, the division was upgraded to the Department of Radiological Technology and simultaneously founded Taiwan's first Graduate Institute of Radiological Sciences, enrolling its first cohort of master's students. In 2002, a doctoral program was launched. In 2006, merging into a unified entity and renamed the Department of Biomedical Imaging and Radiological Sciences.

DETAIL

Our department is the only educational center of its kind among national universities. We are dedicated to continuous improvement for both students and faculty, upholding high standards in teaching and research. This commitment helps us build advanced competitiveness and pursue excellence as our core value. Our mission is to cultivate future leaders in radiology and related fields such as radiological technology, radiological medicine, biology, chemistry, pharmacy, radiation physics, and biomedical imaging.

The primary goal of our institute is to train professional educators and advanced researchers in the areas of medical physics, biomedical imaging, radiobiology, nuclear medicine, and clinical radiological sciences. We aim to elevate both the technical application and the level of research and development in these disciplines.

Radiation safety has become an increasingly important concern across medical, industrial, and nuclear power sectors. Addressing these challenges requires long-term and in-depth research in radiobiology and health physics, providing the government with expert advice and professional services.

In addition to training professionals in biomedical imaging and radiation sciences, our department also welcomes practitioners who wish to pursue further studies and develop secondary expertise in these fields.
