Bachelor of Science in Cardiopulmonary Therapy

The Bachelor of Science in Cardiopulmonary Therapy (BSCT or BSRT) is a four year academic degree in the science and principles of Respiratory therapy, granted by a tertiary education university or similarly accredited school. Though one is eligible to sit for the NBRC-WRE licensing examination to become a Registered Respiratory Therapist after graduating from either a two year program with an Associate's Degree or from a four-year program with an Bachelor's Degree, the BSCT/BSRT prepares respiratory therapists for a professional role away from the bedside with coursework in science, research, leadership, and informatics.
