What will I learn?

The respiratory care program offers a full-time upper-division program leading to the Bachelor of Science degree. Stony Brook freshmen are given the option to declare respiratory care as a lower-division major. Respiratory therapists specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with heart, lung, and sleep disorders. They work with a wide variety of patients, from premature infants to the elderly. They provide services in many settings including hospitals, clinics, physician offices, nursing homes, and rehabilitation centers. Many are also taking advantage of opportunities in diagnostic labs (such as sleep, cardiac catheterization and pulmonary function) and in-home health care. Individuals who graduate from the program are employed as clinicians, managers, educators and researchers.
