Polysomnography
The Polysomnography Curriculum prepares individuals, working in
conjunction with a physician, to perform and interpret sleep studies and to
provide comprehensive clinical evaluations that are required for the
diagnosis of sleep related disorders.
Students should acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to perform sleep
studies, including recording and interpreting events observed during sleep.
