Radiation Safety (RSC)

Radiation Safety Overview

The Radiation Safety program at Illinois Tech consists of the Radiation Safety Committee (RSC) working in collaboration with the Radiation Safety Officer (RSO). These entities ensure the safe handling of radioactive materials. Please contact the Radiation Safety Committee to initiate the approval process. All researchers (including faculty and students) must be properly trained before conducting experiments involving radioactive materials.
