Hi, I think I have a solution. It's not the most beautiful one, but it 
should work.

def selectProjectType():
    global modulename
    #...
    if projectType == 'phys':
        modulename = 'pyhsModule'
    else:
        modulename = 'logicModule'

Later, when you select the project type:

selectProjectType()
exec('from '+modulename+' import *')

Good luck!
