Professional Science Master in Medical Physics (PSMMP)
Program Description
The Department of Physics offers the Professional Science Master in Medical Physics (PSMMP) degree. The PSMMP is a Professional MS innovative program that develops advanced scientific knowledge and professional skills. It is interdisciplinary and provides hands-on learning through on the site training. It aims to engage students with professional goals and help them become scientists uniquely suited to the 21st-century workplace.
Medical Physics is an applied branch of physics devoted to the application of concepts and methods from physics to the diagnosis, treatment of human disease, planning and development of treatment equipment. A qualified Medical Physicist is competent to practice independently one or more of the subfields (tracks) of medical physics.

Certificate in Medical Physics for PhD holders
Program Description
The Department of Physics offers the Certificate in Medical Physics for Ph.D. holders.
This certificate program offered by a CAMPEP-accredited program is designed to provide the essential didactic elements of medical physics to Ph.D. holders seeking to pursue an alternative pathway to medical physics residency. It is intended to enable individuals with a doctoral degree in physics or a related discipline to meet the didactic requirements needed to enter a CAMPEP-accredited residency program.
Students enrolled in the Certificate program may also register for Part I of the American Board of Radiology board exam in Medical Physics. Students with a Ph.D. in physics, physical sciences, mathematics or engineering who are interested in this program may apply for admission to the regular graduate program of the Physics Department. Also, students who are officially admitted as doctoral students in the above-mentioned fields may apply.
