You can get the category data from your product object: $_product->getCategory()->getName();. You will have to edit the template at template/catalog/product/view.phtml. In the template file look for <div class="product-img-box"> and add:

        <div class="product-img-box">
            <h4><?php echo $_product->getCategory()->getName(); ?></h4>
            <?php echo $this->getChildHtml('media') ?>
        </div>
