MedPhys Program Directors' Welcome

Welcome to the University of Maryland Medical Physics Residency Program

On behalf of the entire faculty, we would like to welcome you to the University of Maryland Medical Physics Residency Program.

We are committed to providing you with a comprehensive clinical medical physics training experience that will supply you with all of the tools necessary for you to graduate as an accomplished medical physicist with a strong emphasis on safety, quality, innovation, and leadership. Our goal is to produce high-performing clinical medical physicists who are future leaders in our field.

The University of Maryland offers a diverse clinical experience and incorporates training with state-of-the-art technology, including pencil beam scanning proton therapy, stereotactic radiation, brachytherapy, radioembolization, the unique GammaPod™ invented at the University of Maryland, and hyperthermia therapy. As a leading academic center, we also offer a rich clinical research experience along with top-notch faculty mentorship experiences.

Our faculty provide a supportive environment for learning, and our physics residency program is invested in helping you develop both as a person and as a professional. We value and respect all of our residents, faculty, and staff, and provide an open and welcoming environment where employees are respected and heard, regardless of their position or status within the department. Our department's unique and active Together We Thrive Committee has a resident member to help represent the input of our trainees.

Please take a look at our website, which we hope offers an overview of some of the advantages of the training program at the University of Maryland. If you have further questions, feel free to contact us for more information. We hope you consider applying to our program so that we can show you all our residency has to offer!

Warmly,
Arun and Jochen
