Laboratory Manual in Physical Geology, 12th ed; added by Karen Yip; An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States (REVISIONING HISTORY) added by Ann Bragdon; Environmental Science: A Study of Interrelationships, 15th Edition. This freshman-level course is the second semester of introductory physics. The focus is on electricity and magnetism. The subject is taught using the TEAL (Technology Enabled Active Learning) format which utilizes small group interaction and current technology. The TEAL/Studio Project at MIT is a new approach to physics education designed to help students develop much better intuition about. Learn how the universe behaves by studying matter and its motion through time and space, with the free online Physics courses from Alison. Want to learn how distance, speed, time, and mass are combined to give velocity, force, and acceleration? Join our classes and you'll gain a clear understanding of Newton's Three Laws of Motion, which are.
Professional Science Master in Medical Physics (PSMMP)
Program Description
The Department of Physics offers the Professional Science Master in Medical Physics (PSMMP) degree. The PSMMP is a Professional MS innovative program that develops advanced scientific knowledge and professional skills. It is interdisciplinary and provides hands-on learning through on the site training. It aims to engage students with professional goals and help them become scientists uniquely suited to the 21st-century workplace.
Medical Physics is an applied branch of physics devoted to the application of concepts and methods from physics to the diagnosis, treatment of human disease, planning and development of treatment equipment. A qualified Medical Physicist is competent to practice independently one or more of the subfields (tracks) of medical physics.
The PSMMP is a 41 credit hours program. It provides professional training, in partnership with area hospitals, and focuses on the Radiation Therapy track that absorbs ~75% of Medical Physicists. The typical duration is two years.

Admission Requirements
A BS or BA in Physics. Candidates with a BS in Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, or Engineering with a minor in Physics are considered. At least a 3.0 (of a 4.0 maximum) grade point average (GPA) in Science and Mathematics, courses. Have taken the general portion of the GRE. No minimum score is required (or equivalent). Scores must be no more than five years old.
Certificate in Medical Physics for PhD holders
Program Description
The Department of Physics offers the Certificate in Medical Physics for Ph.D. holders.
This certificate program offered by a CAMPEP-accredited program is designed to provide the essential didactic elements of medical physics to Ph.D. holders seeking to pursue an alternative pathway to medical physics residency. It is intended to enable individuals with a doctoral degree in physics or a related discipline to meet the didactic requirements needed to enter a CAMPEP-accredited residency program.
Students enrolled in the Certificate program may also register for Part I of the American Board of Radiology board exam in Medical Physics. Students with a Ph.D. in physics, physical sciences, mathematics or engineering who are interested in this program may apply for admission to the regular graduate program of the Physics Department. Also, students who are officially admitted as doctoral students in the above-mentioned fields may apply.
Admission Requirements
Applicants must have a Ph.D. in Physics or a related discipline (physical sciences, mathematics or engineering).
