The purpose of the training program in radiation oncology is to provide quality education in oncology and the use of radiation in the treatment of disease.

One of the primary missions of the Department of Radiation Oncology at the Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences is to train excellent future practitioners of radiation oncology.  Since a radiation oncologist is first of all an oncologist, it is necessary to provide training in all aspects of oncology.

Many of our trainees are now in leadership roles both here and at institution across the world. At the student level, the Department is actively involved in many pre-clinical courses and is responsible for successful ambulatory and research clerkships, as well as a highly rated biomedical physics graduate program. In addition, the Department of Radiation Oncology provides educational support to Imam Reza hospitals through quality assurance, lectures, seminars, and teaching rounds.

Our faculty are universally committed to creating a dynamic and supportive academic environment for all of our trainees and students.  Mentorship is highly valued at KUMS, and the utmost emphasis is placed on sustaining a climate where free-thinking and intellectual inquiry thrive.

Qualities such as hard work, friendship, respect, and collegiality always take precedent, and we aim to provide the appropriate balance of autonomy and nurturing so that our trainees and students can attain their loftiest academic/personal goals.

Ultimately, we measure our academic success as a Department largely by the individual success of our trainees and students.
