British Medical Association - An invitation to Making it in Medicine: Insights into studying and working in the medical field - Friday 17 September, 10.00 -11.30
The BMA (British Medical Association) is committed to ensuring that all students who are interested in entering medicine have a fair opportunity to do so. The COVID-19 pandemic has and will continue to have a great impact on the ability for pupils from under-represented backgrounds to access a career in medicine. As part of our work on widening participation in medicine we are organising a virtual panel for school students on Friday 17 September from 10.00 to 11.30, on studying medicine and becoming a doctor.
We will have short presentations from three speakers (TBC), a current medical student and two practicing doctors. They will discuss their personal experience of studying/working in medicine and share any insights they may have on becoming a doctor. The presentations will be followed by a panel discussion, and the panel will be able to answer pre-submitted questions.
This event is open to all school years. It will be a live broadcast, your school will be provided with a link to the event.
We will be in touch in early September to confirm the details. In the meantime, I would be grateful if you could let us know by Monday 19 July whether your school would be interested in virtually attending this event by emailing CSER@bma.org.uk.
If you have any questions or would like to discuss this event further, please email CSER@bma.org.uk or 020 7383 6252.
We look forward to hearing from you.
