For decades, ionizing radiation has been used in beneficial applications, from treating cancer to generating electrical power. "Health physics" is the profession devoted to protecting people and their environment from potential radiation hazards, while making it possible to enjoy these beneficial applications. Many industries, medical facilities, defense plants, and research laboratories need professionals who understand radiation hazards and their prevention and control. The health physics profession is an interesting and rewarding field of scientific endeavor and incorporates an understanding of many disciplines. It has common scientific interests with many areas of specialization: physics, biology, biophysics, engineering (nuclear, civil, mechanical, or electrical), chemistry, genetics, ecology, environmental sciences, metallurgy, medicine, physiology, and toxicology. Health physicists work in a variety of disciplines, including research, industry, education, environmental protection, and enforcement of government regulations. The Health Physics Society has more detailed information.
