Physics in the Clinic (MSc)

Students taking the appropriate courses during their BME-program in Eindhoven may be eligible for the certificate ‘Physics in the clinic’. This certificate is required for admission to the selection procedure for the training of Clinical Physics, though it is no guarantee that you will be admitted to the program.

Please note! Changes in the curriculum have lead to adaptations in the preconditions for the certificate.

Tip for BME or ME master students: you might consider doing some of these courses on top of your regular program.

Students from generation 2012 (Bachelor College) and generation 2015 (Graduate School)

BMT major (Bachelor College)

  •  Math/physics oriented electives during the 2nd and 3rd year

Master BME or ME (Graduate School)

  • Math/physics oriented specialization and electives
  • Graduation and specialization towards: 
    • Orthopedic biomechanics (ME or numerical oriented BME),
    • Cardiovascular biomechanics,
    •  Soft tissue biomechanics (numerical oriented),
    • Medical image analysis,
    • Computational biology,
  • Certificate Physics in the clinic: 
    • Radiation physics (8CM10),
    • Radio-isotopes and ionizing radiation (8NM00),
