Radiation Physics Group
The radiation physics group has distinguished itself in education and research for radiation interactions, solid state dosimetry, and radiation transport calculations, which are of particular importance to radiation protection and environmental monitoring. With our training combining scientific and practice-oriented demands, graduates find employment in research or medical facilities, in industry or administration.
