B.Sc. in Operation Theatre Technology

The B. Sc. programme in Operation Theatre Technology is a new-age skill based programme in the domain of Allied Health Sciences. Advancement in surgical procedures and advent of related technologies have necessitated the requirement of trained manpower to assist the surgeon’s team. Operation theatre technologists have immense scope for assisting surgeons in the operation theatres linked to medical college hospitals, corporate and government hospitals in India and abroad. They are responsible for the preparatory work that must be in place at the operation theatre, prior to and following the completion of the surgical procedures. They also assist in specialized procedures such as endoscopic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, joint replacements, digital angiogram and lithotripsy etc. Further scope includes progression to post-graduation following which they can join academics as faculty in Allied Health Sciences institutions offering similar programmes.
