Applying to the Program

The Medical Physics Residency program applicants must demonstrate a strong foundation in basic physics. This shall be documented by a master's or doctoral degree in medical physics, physics, engineering, mathematics or other science with physics training equivalent to a minor in physics (upper level courses in electricity and magnetism, quantum mechanics, atomic structure, statistical mechanics and mechanics).

Recruiting will begin in the first calendar quarter. Following a response, the program director will contact applicants and discuss the program, their interests and what information they might need. Subsequent to this conversation, the resident applicant will receive the following:

1. Description of the program
2. Material routinely provided by Scott & White Graduate School of Medicine
3. An official application to be filled out

The application and supporting materials are returned to the Medical Physics Residency Program Administrator.

Resident selection is done consistent with the Scott & White Graduate School of Medicine stated policy, i.e.:

"Programs must select from among eligible applicants on the basis of their preparedness, ability, aptitude, academic credentials, communication skills and personal qualities such as motivation and integrity."
