The Department of Radiology Health Physics at the Penn State College of Medicine in Hershey, PA, is seeking a non-tenure line Diagnostic Medical Physicist (Assistant Professor) to support imaging physics activities at the College and Penn State Health's five medical centers and numerous outpatient clinics. This position will provide physics support for a customizable selection of modalities (radiographic, fluoroscopic, CT, ultrasound, mammographic, MR, or nuclear medicine/PET imaging). Some experience with MR and MR safety is preferred. Core responsibilities include advanced imaging clinical support, acceptance testing, supervision of physicist assistants, quality assurance oversight, and education/training of technologists, physicist assistants, medical residents, and physicians. Additional responsibilities include ACR accreditation support, radiation shielding and dosimetry calculations, clinical research support, and routine performance testing. This role offers a strong opportunity for professional growth and learning. The successful candidate will join our group of 7 diagnostic/medical health physicists, two MR safety officers, two medical physicist assistants, and two administrative assistants in a growing academic health system with state-of-the-art equipment and clinical care.

The position requires a graduate degree (MS, DMP, or PhD) in medical physics or a related discipline, at least two years of experience in clinical diagnostic radiology/nuclear medicine physics (including residency, if applicable), and board certification or eligibility in Diagnostic Medical Physics from the American Board of Radiology. For those board-eligible, we will provide a faculty appointment in Radiology after board certification. You must demonstrate excellent organizational, project management, and written/oral communication skills.
