Under the leadership of Dr Manuel Arreola, the Division of Medical Physics is excited to announce the launch of its Professional PhD Track as part of our graduate program offerings. This new track, which is in addition to our standard full-time PhD offering, is for board-certified practicing physicists holding a MS degree. Applicants accepted into this track will continue working and will be part-time students. A commitment from the applicant’s employer (in agreement and support of program participation), is required.

Applicants to the Professional PhD Track should apply in the same manner as the standard full-time PhD program: Admissions. However, the applicant’s personal statement should clearly state that they are seeking Professional PhD Track admission. Professional PhD Track applicants are also required to submit a letter of support from their employer (in addition to the three required letters of recommendation).
