Course content

A specialization course should normally support the topic for the specialization project. The student chooses a course in consultation with their supervisor. The course must be on master's level or higher. As an alternative, the student may choose a combination of two specialization modules from this list:

• TFY1a Advanced topics in MRI and PET
• FY8408 Introduction to MR imaging
• FY8409 Radiation Therapy Physics

Current modules from TFY4525 Bionanotechnology, Specialization Course, can also be chosen.

Learning outcome

The course will give the student an in-depth knowledge of current interests within biophysics and medical technology. There will normally be a connection to the chosen specialization project. For further details, see the learning objectives formulated for each specific course.

Learning methods and activities

For ordinary courses, see the relevant course description. The modules are given as lectures, colloquia, laboratory courses or self studies. Teaching will be in English if students on international master programmes are attending the course. Expected workload in the course is 225 hours.

Recommended previous knowledge

First four years on the study program Applied Physics and Mathematics, line of study Biophysics and Medical Technology, or equivalent.
