Medical Physics Program

The goal of the Medical Physics Graduate Program at the University of Miami is to train students to develop the necessary academic framework as well as a thorough practical understanding in medical physics, including areas of diagnostic radiologic physics, health physics, nuclear medicine, and a designated focus on radiation therapy.
Our MS in Medical Physics Program provides students with the educational and clinical training needed to further their medical physicist career. This CAMPEP-accredited program makes students eligible to apply for medical physics residency programs and register for the American Board of Radiology certification exams.

Program Objective

  • The Medical Physics Program focuses on training students’ research ability and experience in the field of medical physics with an emphasis on radiation therapy, in addition to the course work required by the MS in Biomedical Engineering – Medical Physics Program. Students graduating from the program are required to take the American Board of Radiology (ABR) exam and to apply for medical physics residency programs. Students are encouraged to seek academic positions after graduating from the program.

Program Goals

  • To train students to develop the necessary academic framework as well as a thorough practical understanding in medical physics, including areas of diagnostic radiologic physics, health physics, nuclear medicine, and a designated focus on radiation therapy.

Learning Outcomes

  • Students will be able to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering to formulate and solve relevant medical physics problems.
  • Students will be able to communicate scientific and technical research effectively in writing and oral presentations.
  • Students will be able to work with physicians and technicians in conducting diagnostic radiology or radiation therapy
