The study management, MSU and MFU invite all students at the Faculty of Medicine to a general meeting on 11 November at 17.00-18.00 at Zoom.
After the meeting, there will be information about the working group that will work with student participation at the faculty, as well as other current issues from the studies.
Greetings Dean of Studies Eivind Engebretsen and Elin O. Rosvold, MSU and MFU.
Unfortunately we don't have the possibility of prolonging the trial access for product testing of ClinicalKey Student which gave access to some of the recommended literature electronically the last two months. Access to ClinicalKey Student will therefore end on 31st of May.
The Medical library can assist in searching for literature and getting access to alternative literature. They can be contacted on medisinsk.bibliotek@ub.uio.no
The list of recommended literature can be found on the course pages of the different subjects/modules. For module 6 on the medicine programme all the recommended literature is gathered on https://www.ub.uio.no/fag/medisin/anbefalt-litteratur-medisin-profesjon/modul-6.html...

The projects can result in different formats, for example podcasts, e-learning programs, peer-to-peer teaching, chronicles, feature articles, or the like. Projects that promote interdisciplinary collaboration between different programmes and/or are relevant to a large part of the students at the faculty will be of particular interest. Collaboration between teacher(s) and student(s) is also welcome.
Assessment and implementation of the projects are planned before summer 2020 and the projects have to be completed by November 1st. There is no upper limit on the size of the individual grants.
Deadline: May 31th 2020.
