Medical Physics Residency Program

The UCLA Department of Radiation Oncology offers a two-year clinical training program designed to prepare qualified individuals for a career as a qualified medical physicist in therapeutic radiological physics.

Residents will participate in a structured rotation schedule under the supervision of our team of board-certified medical physicists. Through comprehensive clinical training residents will become competent in all areas of radiation oncology physics and will be prepared to gain initial certification by the American Board of Radiology in Therapeutic Medical Physics.
