BUHS celebrated World Radiography Day 2025

Bangladesh University of Health Sciences (BUHS) celebrated World Radiography Day 2025 on 8 November with a vibrant and festive atmosphere on campus. The occasion marks the anniversary of the historic discovery of X-rays by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen in 1895 and highlights the essential contribution of radiographers and diagnostic imaging to modern healthcare.

The day’s events at BUHS began with an early morning awareness rally, where students from the Department of Radiology, under the Faculty of Health Engineering and Technology, actively participated alongside faculty members. The rally aimed to increase public understanding of the significance of radiography, radiation safety, and the expanding role of imaging technologies in patient care.

Throughout the celebration, faculty members emphasized the importance of skilled radiographers in healthcare delivery and encouraged students to continue advancing their knowledge in this ever-evolving field. The event fostered enthusiasm, unity, and professional pride among students and staff, reflecting BUHS’s commitment to promoting excellence in radiological education and practice.

The successful observance of World Radiography Day 2025 at BUHS not only honored the legacy of Roentgen’s groundbreaking discovery but also reinforced the university’s dedication to developing future leaders in medical imaging and radiation sciences.

Message of The Vice-Chancellor

Prof. J.M.A Hannan

Contrary to popular notion in our society health is not an issue only for the physicians but its development needs a concerted effort of professionals from basic, clinical and social sciences. In line with this concept, generation of human resources in health should not be treated merely from teaching and training points of views; research should also be equally emphasized in this venture as evidences based on geographical, environmental, ethnic and sociocultural background are a prerequisite for rational and cost-effective health care delivery in a population. Based on an internationally recognized research tradition at BIRDEM and BIHS which, in turn, are rooted in the long-term dream of Late National Professor Dr M Ibrahim, the present University aims to blend the three vital elements (teaching, training and research) of education to fulfill the ultimate responsibilities (knowledge dissemination and knowledge generation) of a higher centre of learning. With this aim Bangladesh University of Health Sciences (BUHS) has started its journey with full-time non-practicing (or institutionally practicing) faculty members and a number of highly reputed guest faculties and collaborating partners from all over the world. In public health, BUHS has taken a discipline-wise subspecialty approach which fits more with the present volume of knowledge and technological advancement in the area.We believe that studying in BUHS will be a pleasant and productive experience. Welcome to the BUHS Family!
