Medical Physics with Distinction in Radiotherapy and Biomedical Optics

M.Sc.

Ruprecht Karls University of Heidelberg

Course Overview

The M.Sc. (Master of Science) programme in Medical Physics is an interdisciplinary course intended for graduates in: physics (B.Sc. or higher), natural sciences (with adequate knowledge of physics and mathematics), engineering (with adequate knowledge of physics), medicine (excellent grades required). The course provides an introduction to two fields of Medical Physics, radiation physics/radiation therapy and imaging physics.

Unlike the approach to Medical Physics normally found in physics Faculties, the programme focuses strongly on clinical issues and is intended for those working or planning to work - in the medical field (either as a medical physics expert or in research) later. Accordingly, the course provides not only a theoretical background but also many practical sessions where the knowledge can be applied in the context of modern clinical systems.

Despite its clinical bias, the programme operates at the same level as other lectures courses in physics and hence requires a sound understanding of mathematics and physics.
