Students

Medical students are highly valued members of AMA Victoria. You are the next generation of doctors we will support and advocate for. As the principal voice advancing the Victorian medical profession and influencing policy makers, we wish to connect with you early in your career so we can represent you better in the future. We believe building a relationship with you from your first day of medical school is the best way to achieve this.

We understand the challenges and opportunities you face as a student. We know these can be different to those that present post-graduation. We work hard to support you to navigate these as you journey through medical school and transition to intern.
