MSC Medical Physics in Cancer Radiation Therapy

MSC Medical Physics in Cancer Radiation Therapy is a Masters program taught at University of Manchester, UK. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time (MSc:1yr FT, 2yr PT; PGDip: 9m FT; PGCert: 9m FT) options.

The University of Manchester’s MSc Medical Physics in Cancer Radiation Therapy trains you to become a multidisciplinary scientist in medical physics and cancer research involving ionising radiation. You study the radiotherapy patient pathway, including accurate radiation delivery, imaging across the pathway, and optimisation of bespoke treatment plans. The course also includes cancer biology and radiobiology, with an emphasis on how radiation interacts with cancer cells and normal tissues.

Teaching is delivered by academics from the University and clinical scientists/oncologists at The Christie. Delivery happens in person, with units delivered throughout each semester. The master’s includes a strong application component, introducing you to python as a primary scripting language and applying data science and machine learning to medical physics. Your collaboration with The Christie supports unique research projects using MR-Linac and proton therapy research facilities.
