The Nordic Radiotherapy Diploma Program (NORTHDIP) is a postgraduate educational and training program for clinical oncologists working in Denmark, Iceland, Finland, Norway, and Sweden.
The NORTHDIP steering committee was established in 2022 by the Nordic countries with the aim of strengthening radiotherapy competence among practicing clinical oncologists and of making radiation oncology an even more attractive subspecialty within clinical oncology.
In addition, the NORTHDIP initiative aims to increase collaboration in research and development across the Nordic countries, thereby creating a foundation for future scientific cooperation and collaborations.


Radiotherapy is an essential component of cancer treatment. Approximately 50% of all cancer patients will receive radiotherapy as part of their treatment plan at one or more occasions during the course of their disease. All Nordic countries strive to provide their citizens with the best possible care and to involve as many patients as possible in clinical trials.
In the Nordic countries, clinical oncologists practice both medical oncology and radiation oncology. There is currently a shortage of clinical oncologists with advanced competence in radiation oncology.

30 applicants are accepted into the program. Specialists that have worked less than five years in the radiotherapy department will be favored. Read more and learn how to apply now.
