An anesthesia technologist is a healthcare worker who supports the administration of anesthesia and the monitoring of patients who are under anesthesia. These technologists require a broad knowledge of the use and maintenance of anesthesia instruments, as well as the technology and techniques of the field of anesthesiology. They typically work under the supervision of a professional anesthesiologist or anesthetist.
The anesthesia technology program at AUIB requires 123 semester credits (hours) in a range of courses that start with a liberal arts offering but rapidly move into the science and technology required for a professional education. The required courses are listed below along a suggested course sequence.
