Radiological Physics

about the programme

The Radiological Physics follow-up master’s programme prepares students for the medical profession of a radiological physicist. Studies combine advanced knowledge of nuclear and radiation physics with applications in medicine, particularly in radiotherapy, radiodiagnostics, and nuclear medicine. Students learn to calibrate modern irradiators, operate diagnostic equipment, perform clinical dosimetry, and gain a basic understanding of radiobiology. The programme includes both theoretical instruction and professional experience, including master’s projects conducted in collaboration with hospitals and research facilities.

Programme content

Students will attend core courses focused on:

  • Monte Carlo methods in radiation physics,
  • radiobiology,
  • image processing and pattern recognition.

career prospects

Graduates find employment as radiological physicists in hospitals, in departments of radiodiagnostics, nuclear medicine, radiotherapy, or medical physics. Thanks to their knowledge of radiation protection and legislation, graduates can also work in institutions focused on nuclear safety. The programme is designed in accordance with European legislation (RP 174 directive), providing graduates with the necessary experience to work as clinical radiological physicists or experts in medical physics.
