MD3 & MD4 - help shape radiology teaching at UQ 📚🩻

UQRIG is sharing a short 2-minute anonymous survey for a UQ Student–Staff Partnership project on radiology learning during clinical rotations.

Your feedback will help decide which rotation should be prioritised for a new radiology learning guide and what students actually want from radiology teaching and resources.

If you’ve ever felt unsure about what imaging you’re expected to know, where to find the right resources, or what would actually be useful on rotation, we’d really value your input.

Please share with other MD3 and MD4 students too!

A fellow UQRIG member is currently undertaking a Student Staff Partnership (SSP) exploring how education in medical device and healthcare technology development could be integrated into the MD curriculum.

The goal of this project is to both gauge student interest in this type of education and develop a framework through which interested students can be equipped with the knowledge and skills to independently and collaboratively develop medical devices and healthcare technologies after graduation.

An important part of the project is understanding student interest through a short survey - this is where you come in. The survey takes approximately 2 minutes to complete, and your feedback will play an important role in informing discussions around future curriculum opportunities in this space.

Thank you for taking the time to contribute to this initiative and help shape the future of medical education at UQ.
