Description
Two Medical Student Virtual Mobility Grants will be available in 2020-21. With the goal of increasing students’ knowledge of global health, the grants will offer capital for medical schools to deliver virtual mobility ventures in association with medical schools at ACU member universities in other countries.
This scheme will swap the Edward Boyle medical elective bursaries, which supported UK medical students to undertake foreign electives. To reflect the existing times, the Medical Student Mobility Grants are for virtual partnerships only
Eligibilities
Projects within the room of the grants must include:
- Students from the two partner organizations cooperating on an evaluated project
- A virtual event such as an online summer school
The projects must include students from two institutions in different countries, must involve online communication, and should enable students to develop their intercultural skills and information. The project must be delivered before the end of 2021. Submissions will only be acknowledged from medical school staff. Students are not qualified to apply directly
Benefits
- Two grants of a maximum of GBP 5,000 would be offered. Each grant will be divided between the two institutions cooperating on the project.
- One grant will fund an exchange between a UK medical school and a medical school in a low or middle-income country, while the other grant has no geographical boundaries.
