Swami Rama Himalayan University (SRHU), Jolly Grant, has started M.Sc. Medical Physics, a program which is offered by only three universities in North India. The program which is managed under the Himalayan Institute of Medical Sciences, was inaugurated by Dr. Vijay Dhasmana, President of SRHU.

Dr. Dhasmana emphasized the uniqueness of the program, approved by the Atomic Energy Regulatory Board (AERB). He highlighted the growing global demand for skilled professionals in cancer treatment facilities, citing the increasing prevalence of cancer and the expansion of radiotherapy centers worldwide. He noted that youth aspiring to study such a specialized field like Medical Physics will no longer need to leave Uttarakhand.

The course prepares students for lucrative career opportunities in India and abroad by providing hands-on training with state-of-the-art equipment in advanced labs. Students from states such as Rajasthan, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh have already enrolled in the inaugural batch.

This milestone marks a significant step toward making specialized education accessible within Uttarakhand and equipping youth with expertise in cutting-edge medical technologies.
