Residencies & Internships

NMPC provides opportunities for students to enter the world of radiation oncology.

Residencies

Visit MedPhys Match

We have a CAMPEP-accredited residency program with four residencies for graduates of a CAMPEP-accredited graduate medical physics program.

Internships

Apply at our Careers page

We offer 10-week summer internships to those earning or having recently earned a BS in physics or a physics-related field (similar to the AAPM internship program).

Students

Visit CWU physics

We have partnered with Central Washington University to offer a degree program emphasis in medical physics for undergraduate majors in physics.

Mock Oral ABR Class

NMPC offers ABR and CCPM mock oral boards in preparation for the board examinations.
  • Virtual & Accessible: All sessions are conducted conveniently via Webex. Simply connect with a webcam to participate from anywhere.
  • Focus on Communication: Our primary emphasis is on developing clear, concise, and effective oral communication. While medical physics content feedback is provided, the core training targets presentation and clarity.
  • Personalized & Focused: Each 2-hour session is conducted with just one other participant, ensuring focused attention and a highly interactive experience.
  • Flexible Enrollment: Sign up for a single session to target specific areas, or enroll in multiple sessions for comprehensive preparation.
  • Recordings for Review: Every session is recorded and available for download, allowing you to review your performance and track your progress at your convenience.
  • Post-Session Resources: A hard copy of each examination will be provided upon completion, offering valuable material for further study.

Please contact Rex Ayers, MS, DABR, MCCPM, CHP for additional information via rayers@nmpc.org.
