Radiation Therapist Jobs in Michigan: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a radiation therapist in Michigan?
To become a radiation therapist in Michigan, you must complete an accredited radiation therapy program and obtain a state license through the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs. Licensure requires passing the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists exam in radiation therapy. Most Michigan employers also expect a JRCERT-accredited associate or bachelor's degree. Applications and renewal are handled through LARA's Bureau of Professional Licensing.
How much do radiation therapists make in Michigan?
Radiation therapists in Michigan earn a median of about $95,890 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $79,610 for the lowest 10% to over $110,030 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire radiation therapists in Michigan?
Employers hiring radiation therapists in Michigan right now include Henry Ford Health, Corewell Health, and McLaren Health Care, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Michigan's large integrated health systems and its concentration of NCI-designated cancer programs mean demand is steady across both major metro campuses and regional affiliate sites.
Which Michigan cities have the most radiation therapist jobs?
Detroit, Petoskey, and Flint have the most radiation therapist openings in Michigan. Detroit leads because of its density of major hospital systems and comprehensive cancer centers, while Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor generate consistent volume through Corewell Health's West Michigan footprint and Michigan Medicine's academic oncology programs respectively.
Are there remote radiation therapist jobs in Michigan?
Yes, but they're rare. Radiation therapy is a hands-on clinical role that requires operating linear accelerators and positioning patients, so the overwhelming majority of Michigan positions are fully on-site. About 25% of radiation therapist openings tied to Michigan are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those roles are typically limited to treatment planning review or administrative and quality-assurance functions.
How can I get hired as a radiation therapist in Michigan with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying to new-graduate or transition-to-practice programs at large Michigan systems such as Henry Ford Health and Corewell Health, which periodically onboard candidates fresh from accredited programs. Completing clinical rotations at a Michigan facility builds the local relationships that often lead to offers. Candidates moving laterally from radiologic technology roles also have an advantage, as the equipment familiarity transfers directly. Holding an active ARRT credential and a current Michigan LARA license before applying removes a common hiring barrier.
Where can I find and apply to radiation therapist jobs in Michigan?
You can find and apply to radiation therapist jobs in Michigan on Migrate Mate, which lists current Michigan openings across hospital systems, cancer centers, and outpatient facilities. Find the roles that fit your experience and location and apply directly.
