In 1998 the University of Malaya (UM) launched the Master of Medical Physics (MMedPhys) programme to meet this growing need for qualified medical physicists to manage and monitor the medical usage of radiation in Malaysia. This programme was housed under the Faculty of Medicine. Since then, over 130 students have graduated from this programme. The UM MMedPhys programme is currently the only master programme accredited by the Institute of Physics and Engineering in Medicine (IPEM) outside the United Kingdom and British Isle.
