The University of Miami Miller School of Medicine is committed to providing equal opportunity and an educational and work environment free from discrimination on the basis of sex, race, color, religion, national origin, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, genetic information, marital status, citizenship status, or other protected classification.
The program, insofar as it responds to a regional need, is expected to attract students of wide diversity because of the demographics of South Florida. It will admit applicants of diverse educational backgrounds as well, considering applications from all science, engineering, and other technical graduates, as well as from those already established in radiation therapy even if they lack science or engineering degrees.
Selection of students into the program will be done through the admissions committee, which consists of the program director, educational coordinator, chief of medical physics, a physician representative, and a dosimetrist preceptor representative. The interviews are conducted in person or by video. The ranking of the candidates is done based on academic credentials (e.g., GPAs), personal statements, recommendation letters, related experience, and interview performance.
