Does the MMP program require a thesis? And do you have a PhD option?

Because this is a clinically oriented program, no traditional thesis is required.  We do require our students to give a presentation to the faculty at the end of their last semester. 

We do not offer a PhD in medical physics. There is a possibility of entering a PhD program in the Department of Physics and Astronomy following the MMP Program, but students in their second year of our program will need to apply directly to that department. PhD research could be done on a medical physics topic with medical physics faculty who are also adjunct faculty members in the Department of Physics and Astronomy.
