RSM Scholarship Programme
The Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) is a registered charity and a membership organisation with a heritage of over 200 years. Our vision is better healthcare for better lives. We deliver our vision by providing continuing education to doctors and other healthcare professionals. Our multidisciplinary, specialist, and general education, and professional development, is led by the top experts in over 50 specialist areas of medicine. Through our compelling events, we provide a neutral platform for debate and sharing knowledge and experience. The RSM connects those involved in, and interested in, healthcare and we support, help, and inspire the innovators developing tomorrow's medical products and services.
What are the RSM scholarships?
The Royal Society of Medicine programme is an exciting development opportunity for resident doctors, funded by philanthropic donations. It aims to support the development of resident doctors in a way that not only supports the development of the individual scholars but extends this impact through their scholarship work to enhance the way the RSM supports all residents.
Why you should apply
This is a key developmental opportunity that offers education, mentoring, networking, and professional development to complement your time as a resident doctor.
As an RSM scholar, you would be financially supported to become a member of the Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) for the remaining period as a resident doctor. Throughout this time, you would be further supported to attend specialty, resident doctor, and broader events at the RSM, as well as receive mentoring and professional development support. The RSM scholars also have the opportunity to network with other members and attend exclusive RSM Scholar networking events. In addition, there will be scholarship activity which the scholars will take part in – generally (on a flexible basis) around 5 days per annum. While these activities will not involve a research project, there may be opportunities to contribute to or even take a leadership role in organising events.
RSM scholars will receive support to share their scholarly work with various audiences, including peers, other RSM members, and the Psychiatry community. They will aim to make an impact and develop through these opportunities, striving for innovation that benefits both the sector and the patient experience and outcomes.
