医学物理学理学硕士

医学物理学是物理学的一个应用分支，致力于将概念和方法从物理学应用于人类疾病的诊断和治疗。医学物理学家是关注三个主要活动领域的科学家：临床服务和咨询，研究与开发以及教学。临床上，要求医学物理学家提供科学建议和资源，以解决放射医学物理中出现的物理问题。医学物理学研究通常涉及发现和开发新仪器和技术，使用现有技术的新医学诊断和治疗程序以及测试。从历史上看，这种类型的活动主要集中在放射成像和放射肿瘤学领域，但如今在整个医学领域的参与范围越来越广。
Our unique MSMP curriculum sets the foundation you need to excel in residency, on your board-certification exams, in your future clinical practice, or in your future academic pursuits.<br>Your two years of MSMP coursework are the theoretical groundwork for your future career.<br><br>Complete five semesters of challenging coursework. Your first year will include coursework relevant to both diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy tracks, but your second-year courses will specialize further based on the track you choose.<br>Thrive in our small-group learning environments. Because of our small program size, most of your classes will include 3 to 6 students, so youll have plenty of opportunity for one-on-one instruction and direct feedback.<br>Collaborate with students and faculty from both therapy and imaging tracks.<br>Learn from the interdisciplinary expertise of our experienced faculty.<br>Practicum: Hands-on Clinic Work<br>Though the MSMP centers on coursework, clinical experience remains crucial to this step of your medical physics training.<br><br>Whether youre shadowing a radiologist, running quality assurance, or learning to operate the latest of radiation-producing technology, youll be involved in clinical settings from Day 1.<br>Over the course of your two years here, youll complete 200 hours of clinical practicum, and your responsibilities will gradually build so that, by the end of Year 2, youll be equipped to perform residency-level tasks.
