This registration form is only for students already accepted to the BMedSc(Hons) Program at Newcastle University, UK, and approved to use the form. It is not open to any other students.
Every year, a small number of Monash medical students can apply for the Colin Ingram Travel Award which is intended to help fund students to undertake their BMedSc(Hons) research project at Newcastle University.
The Travel Award will cover $7,000 towards airfares, accommodation and living expenses for at least a three month exchange to Newcastle University. The student can spend their entire honours year at Newcastle University if the project requires it, but no additional funding will be available.
Students are supervised by at least one researcher at Monash University and at least one staff member from Newcastle University.
For more information about this opportunity and to apply for the Travel Award, visit the Overseas BMedSc(Hons) opportunities web page and scroll down to information for the BMedSc(Hons) Monash-Newcastle (UK) Alliance - Colin Ingram Travel Award.
The program is overseen by Assoc. Prof. Megan Wallace (Director of Medical Student Research, Monash University) and Professor Alexander Thiele (Chair of Visual Neurosciences at the Biosciences Institute, Newcastle University).
Note
Where students receive the Travel Award and subsequently fail to complete their research as approved, they may be required to refund the Travel Award in full.
