摘要

由于蒙特卡洛码在研究中被广泛使用，因此将蒙特卡洛码的学习纳入到物理学院的课程中是非常重要的。在伍伦贡大学工程物理学院，我们设计并设置了一门针对医学物理领域的Geant4课程。在本文中，我们阐述了该课程的主要特点及其自2010年以来的发展。本课程的设计可能是为了教授Geant4或其他蒙特卡罗代码，一般来说是为了教授计算背景有限的学生复杂的软件工具。

Teaching Monte Carlo codes at university: Development of a Geant4 course for students of schools of physics

Nowadays, it is important that students of Schools of Physics include the study of Monte Carlo codes in their curriculum as these codes are widely used in research. At the School of Engineering Physics of the University of Wollongong, we designed and set in place a Geant4 course addressed to the Medical Physics domain. In this paper, we illustrate the main features of the course and its development since 2010. The design of this course maybe adopted to teach Geant4 or any other Monte Carlo code, and in general to teach complex software tools to students with limited computing background.
