• The Swansea has been running an MSc in Medical Radiation Physics since 1993, recruiting around 120 students to the programme in that time
• The programme has been IPEM accredited since 2001. The School of Engineering has hosted the course since 2008
• A Modernised MSc in Clinical Science (Medical Physics) at Swansea has recently been commissioned by NLIAH and will run in 2012 subject to accreditation standards set by the Department of Health (England)
Background
