Please see below information regarding the Medic Insight weeks, which are running on the University of Glasgow campus and in NHS locations in the weeks beginning Mondays 19 and 26 June 2017.

Medic Insight is a Medical student-run programme which started in Glasgow last year, with the goal of providing a week of insight into the medical profession to prospective medical students in secondary schools, who have had difficulty in securing their own work experience.

Applications for the two week-long programmes will open online on Monday 20 February and close at midnight on Sunday 26 February 2017. Applications are not considered on a first come first served basis, but to be considered for a place, pupils MUST apply within these dates.

Additionally, a named and contactable Teacher (preferably Guidance Teacher) MUST supply a short reference for the student. Applications without a relevant Teacher Reference may not be considered. In the reference, the teachers should refer to and confirm information given by the pupil, i.e. if the pupil is in receipt of Free School Meals or EMA, has care experience or is a carer. The Teacher reference will be taken as verification of the pupil application. The references should also be sent within the above time period. Instructions regarding where to send the reference will be given within the online application form.

Selection will be made from all complete applications.
