Are there any scholarships or assistantships available to the MMP students?
As a professional master’s degree program, the MMP program is based on a professional school model where the students are self-funded. We are working closely with Student Financial Services at Penn to assure MMP students are able to obtain appropriate funding as well as ensuring that the process goes smoothly. You can contact Student Financial Services at sfsmail@sfs.upenn.edu or 215-898-1988. Their website is http://www.sfs.upenn.edu/. While many students are self-funded, several hold fully funded research assistantship positions in the Department of Radiation Oncology (University of Pennsylvania Health System). Partial tuition assistantships will be available for select second year students serving as teaching assistants for first year medical physics courses. In addition, we hope to establish a general Medical Physics Scholarship Fund over the next few years which will provide at least partial tuition assistance to all MMP students.
