The EMDP Society is led by students on the Extended Medical Degree Programme and our mission is to support first-year medical students as they settle into university life.
We understand that starting university can be overwhelming, from adjusting to the workload to making new friends, but our society is here to help make that transition easier.
While we place a special emphasis on supporting WP students, our society is open to all. We recognise that students from underrepresented backgrounds may face unique challenges and we are committed to ensuring they are supported and valued.
Our socials, workshops and events are designed to be inclusive, welcoming all first year medical students who want to learn and grow.
Throughout the year, we will run a variety of activities, from academic workshops aimed at helping you succeed in your studies, to social events where you can relax, socialise and build friendships. Most importantly, we are a student-led society so who understand the challenges first-hand. Our support is practical and genuine.
Whether you're seeking academic guidance, peer mentorship or simply a friendly community, the EMDP Society is here for you. Together, we aim to make medical school not just manageable, but also enjoyable.
