Information for Prospective Applicants to CAMPEP-Accredited Residency Programs


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

  1. Have graduated from a CAMPEP-accredited MS or PhD graduate program, or
  2. Possess a PhD in physics or related discipline and have completed a CAMPEP-accredited certificate program, or
  3. 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).
