My specific area of study was perpendicular magnetization in thin films, which is of great value in the field of high-density recording. I was required to prepare thin films by two different methods, subject them to stress and then study alterations in their magnetic behaviour. One aspect of my study was bombardment of the films at the Nuclear Science Centre, New Delhi and CEERI, Pilani. Besides the usual seminars and reports, I presented papers at two international conferences held in Hyderabad and Indore, respectively, in the duration of these two years
Dec 1991–Dec 1992	Diploma in Radiological Physics from the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, Kolkata which qualified me to be a health and medical physicist at both hospitals and scientific establishments using radioactive materials.
