Registered with the Digital Government Authority under number:
20260412890The Bachelor of Science in Nuclear Engineering (Medical Physics) program prepares students to apply the principles of physics, engineering, radiation science, and measurement to the medical uses of ionizing radiation. The curriculum combines engineering and nuclear foundations with courses in anatomy and physiology, radiobiology, introduction to medical physics, radiation therapy, medical imaging, nuclear medicine, dosimetry, nuclear electronics, radiation protection, and periodic clinical practical training. Students develop the ability to understand imaging and treatment systems, perform radiation measurements and dose calculations, support quality assurance activities, communicate effectively with multidisciplinary teams, and contribute safely and ethically in clinical, research, regulatory, and technical environments. Professional practice in clinical medical physics may require advanced postgraduate education, supervised practical experience, and professional licensure or certification in accordance with local regulations.
To be a nationally leading and globally competitive program in preparing specialized professionals in medical physics who contribute to the safe, effective, and innovative use of radiation in healthcare and scientific research.
To prepare specialized professionals in medical physics through high-quality undergraduate education and practical training that integrate scientific and engineering fundamentals, nuclear sciences, radiation measurements, medical imaging, radiation therapy, nuclear medicine, dosimetry, radiation protection, quality assurance, and professional ethics. This enables graduates to support the safe and effective use of radiation in healthcare, solve applied problems in medical physics, and pursue graduate studies and professional development in related fields.
