Nucl. Med. Technol.1981 Jun 01; 9 AB - A university-based baccalaureate nuclear medicine program with a consortium of 11 hospital clinical training sites has been developed in Western New York State to meet the manpower needs in the region. A multifaceted clinical rotation schedule was designed into the program in order to provide students with the broadest possible learning experiences in a variety of hospital and training environments. The success of this educational consortium has depended heavily upon the open channels of communication established among the program’s many constituents. The regional demand for technologists is being met as 64% of the graduates take their first job in New York State.
