Established in 2015, UMS (MedSoc) is the oldest society in the School of Medicine and is made by the students for the students. But we’re more than just a Society. We hope to create a community that supports and celebrates all of our students through their multifaceted medical school journeys. We’re here to look out for you, and to ensure you succeed in your chosen field as a well-rounded, passionate, and confidently equipped healthcare professional.
Through the Society, we undertake a range of programs to empower students through academics, peer mentorship, wellbeing management and community building. Our annual events include MedBall, Clans (peer mentorship), International Evening, Medical Freshers Fair, and Grad Dinner. We also produce some exclusive merch (peep our bags, tags, and hoodies) and handy academic guides to get you through every year. This year, we’ve established a Wellbeing team to also answer any of your wellbeing (ie. mental and physical health) or welfare questions (ie. how to navigate your first lease, how to handle racism during placements etc).
Our Committee is organized through several sub-committees to ensure that we cover the various facets of the student experience. These are the Freshers, Social, MedBall, Wellbeing, Community, and Grants sub-committees. More detail on our structure and guiding principles can be found in our Constitution (see Documents tab). You can also learn more about our Committee at our Annual General Meeting, open to all members and Societies, where we audit and take feedback on our ups and downs at the end of the year. Stay tuned for more info!
And in the meantime, familiarize yourself with the Committee members below who’ll be some friendly faces on campus and at socials to look out for. Check out our Events page for a list of said socials (and to find activities held by other Societies). Finally, do stay in touch via our FB, twitter and instagram (@uclanmedsoc) for official UMS updates.
