JALANDHAR, October 17, 2026: Students of the P.G. Department of Physics at Kanya Maha Vidyalaya received practical exposure to modern medical imaging and diagnostic technologies through a series of specialised clinical internships organised for undergraduate Semester V students.
The initiative was designed to help students connect concepts studied in the classroom with their practical application in hospitals and diagnostic centres. During the training, students observed how physics, optics and scientific instrumentation are used in everyday healthcare and medical diagnosis.
Participants received exposure to technologies such as CT scans, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), X-ray systems, eye-testing equipment and specialised optical lenses. The internships also helped students understand the basic working principles and clinical applications of these technologies.
Students from both B.Sc. Non-Medical and B.Sc. Computer Science programmes participated in the training. The B.Sc. Non-Medical group included Arshdeep Kaur, Jaisika, Reena Devi, Palak, Priyanjali, Yogita and Harmanpreet Kaur, while Ramandeep Kaur, Jasmeen Kaur, Simran Kaur and Manpreet Kaur represented the B.Sc. Computer Science programme.
The practical training was conducted at several healthcare and diagnostic institutions, including Guru Nanak Hospital in Bhogpur, Mandav Hospital in Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, Akaal Hospital in Bhogpur, Civil Hospital in Tanda, and Super Scanning & Diagnostic Pvt. Ltd./Joshi Hospital in Jalandhar.
The students were able to observe diagnostic procedures and understand how scientific instruments are operated in clinical environments. The exposure also introduced them to the interdisciplinary nature of healthcare technology, where physics, computing, optics and medical science increasingly work together.
KMV Director Prof. (Dr.) Atima Sharma Dwivedi appreciated the efforts of the students and the P.G. Department of Physics in organising the programme. She said practical learning opportunities help students build technical confidence and better understand career possibilities beyond conventional classroom-based education.
She added that exposure to medical imaging, optics and diagnostic technologies can open new avenues for students interested in emerging fields where science and healthcare intersect.
The internship programme forms part of KMV’s emphasis on experiential and skill-oriented education, giving students an opportunity to understand how theoretical scientific principles translate into professional applications.
