Overview
MSc in Medical Physics with Radiobiology – a one-year, full-time course delivered by world-leading academics and clinical scientists. The main aim is to discuss how ionizing and non-ionizing radiation are used in clinical practice, both in radiotherapy and medical imaging, combined with radiobiology at molecular and cellular levels to give graduates a deeper understanding of the effects of radiation. The course is accredited by the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM).
Why study with us
