ICTP and the University of Trieste offer a Master's Programme in Medical Physics (MMP), a two-year advanced training programme in the field of medical physics, co-sponsored by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), supported by the International Organisation for Medical Physics (IOMP) and the European Federation of Organization for Medical Physics (EFOMP) and in collaboration with the Trieste University Hospital.
The next programme will be held from 1 January 2023 until 31 December 2024 and will lead to an Advanced Studies Master Degree in Medical Physics. The denomination of the official Italian Degree is "Master di Secondo Livello in Fisica Medica".
The first year will be spent at ICTP, in Trieste, Italy, while the second year will be dedicated to a supervised clinical training in a Medical Physics Department of a hospital in the programme's training network. Courses are held in English.
The Master's Programme is designed to provide young, promising graduates of physics or related fields (mainly from low and medium income countries) with postgraduate theoretical and clinical training so that candidates may be recognised as Clinical Medical Physicists in their home countries.
