Application Information
Residents entering a medical physics residency educational program shall have a strong foundation in basic physics. This shall be demonstrated either by an undergraduate or graduate degree in physics, or by a degree in an engineering discipline or another of the physical sciences and with coursework that is the equivalent of a minor in physics (i.e., one that includes at least three upper-level undergraduate physics courses that would be required for a physics major).
In addition, residents must either:
- Have graduated from a CAMPEP-accredited MS or PhD graduate program, or
- Possess a PhD in physics or related discipline and have completed a CAMPEP-accredited certificate program, or
- Possess a PhD in physics or related discipline and have satisfactorily completed courses equivalent to those in a CAMPEP-accredited certificate program, as determined by the CAMPEP Graduate Education Program Review Committee (GEPRC).
The official degree conferral date prior to July 1st of the current year of recruitment is required. For example, our residency program’s training date starts on July 1, 20xx, your degree conferral date must be before or on June 30, 20xx as the latest.
Candidates who possess a PhD are preferred, but exceptional MS candidates will be considered.
