Programs for Training in Medical Physics
Medical Physics Master’s Program
The program is designed for full-time students who wish to pursue a career as a medical physicist either as a researcher, as a certified clinical profession or in industry. The program, which commenced in 2021, requires successful completion of a minimum of 38 credits for Master’s degree as well as a research thesis with one or more of the faculty. Full-time students will complete the master’s in two years. To date, 5 graduates have continued on into residency, industry, clinical practice, and other sectors.

This three-year residency program, which is accredited by CAMPEP, provides strong competency in clinical medical physics along with clinically oriented research and development experience. The program's goal is to train highly competent medical physicists who will provide excellent patient care and will contribute as the next generation of leaders.
Applicants should have a recent PhD in medical physics, experimental physics, biophysics, or related discipline and have a demonstrated track record of experimental design and execution. The program currently accepts graduates from CAMPEP-accredited medical physics programs.
Training takes place under the direct mentorship of experienced clinical and research physics staff with support from others in the department and university. Two years of the residency are dedicated to clinical training and one year to clinically directed research and development.
