医学物理学专业理学硕士

物理系提供医学物理学专业理学硕士学位（PSMMP）。PSMMP是一个专业的MS创新计划，旨在开发先进的科学知识和专业技能。它是跨学科的，通过现场培训提供动手学习。它旨在使学生具有专业目标，并帮助他们成为独特适合21世纪工作场所的科学家。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诊断，治疗人类疾病，规划和开发治疗设备。合格的医学物理学家有能力独立实践医学物理学的一个或多个子领域（轨道）。PSMMP是一项41学时的课程（加上3学分的先修课程）。它与地区医院合作提供专业培训，并侧重于吸收
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. The PSMMP is a 41 credit hours program (plus the 3 credits prerequisite course). It provides professional training, in partnership with area hospitals, and focuses on the Radiation Therapy track that absorbs 75% of Medical Physicists. Typical duration is two years.
