Sunday, 07 March 2010

The annual NSW Medical Students' cocktail party is upon us! 500 medical students from all across NSW (and indeed the ACT) will be hitting up North Sydney to meet, greet, dance, drink, and generally let the good times roll.

Saturday March 20th, Greenwood Hotel North Sydney. Tickets $10 - include drink on arrival.

Hurry, tickets are selling fast (so fast the server crashed when they were launched!) - get yours now at nswmsc.org.au, and join the facebook event to invite all your friends along too!

ImageDo you ski or board and just missed out on Vancouver? Or have you never even been to the snow, and think that a week of ‘ice’ and ‘fresh white powder’ might get you arrested?

Either way – UNSW MedSki wants you! MEDSKI is UNSW Medicine's annual ski trip open to all UNSW medical students, of all years and all abilities. After a long absence, it's finally back, and bigger than ever.

This year, it will be held between 10-16 July, 2010. Further details and prices will be released shortly.
We've been working tirelessly to get the best possible deals, and we guarantee that our prices beat any comparable rate. On top of that, we have put together an awesome social program, and all transport, transfers, hire, passes inclusive.



MedSki is open to all UNSW Med Students, of all years, and of all abilities. It’s not just for the pros, as lessons are available for those who have never been or need to brush up their technique.

Registration of Interest is open now. Click here to register your interest!

Also check out our social networking site event page at: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=10150122253005133

As a way to ease your transition into medical school, we have proudly organised the 2010 edition of MEDCAMP!!!!

Sure to be one of your most memorable uni experiences, Medcamp is a great way to meet new friends, new people and have a lot of fun; after all, you will be spending your time with these people for the next six years!
We’ve jam-packed your camp with awesome activities: from trivia night to toga party, so we’re sure you’ll have a blast. I know we did, and made lifelong friends through the event.

Here are the details:

WHO? YOU!! NEW UNSW MED FIRST YEARS!!
WHAT? MEDCAMP 2010
WHEN? Friday 12th March – Sunday 14th of March (PUT IT IN YOUR DIARY!)
WHERE? Castle Mountain Campsite, Outdoor Adventure Camps, Wiseman’s Ferry
WHY? Because you DON’T want to be the one not knowing any of the IN-jokes on the following Monday…
HOW? Fill out the form which can be found here. You must pay via credit card or Paypal account immediately after registration to secure your place.

Remember to be quick, as only the first 180 are able to come due to accommodation restrictions!

We look forward to seeing all of you there.

President's Welcome 2010

Hello Everyone.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

I would firstly like to extend my congratulations to the incoming first-year group – we look forward to meeting you. We will also be joined by the first group of students through the graduate entry scheme from medical science at UNSW.

This year promises to be a very exciting new year for our medical society. Medsoc will continue many of our traditional events, but with our dedicated and enthusiastic team (check us out here!), we’ve got many new social and academics initiatives in the pipeline.

I would encourage everyone to take part in all that Medsoc has to offer. To keep up-to-date, please check back on our website, read your student emails and join our Facebook group for 2010.

For the first years, don’t stress yet as you’ve still got plenty of time before you begin university. We’ll have plenty more information to give to you at a later date, but make sure you attend the faculty welcome during O-Week and sign up for Medcamp when registrations open.

Otherwise keep well, stay safe and I look forward to seeing you soon.

Vekram Sambasivam (Med V)
