NHG CAREER DAY 2025

5 July 2025, Saturday

NHG Careers Day served as an open house concept for medical students and house officers to learn about the different residency programs that NHG offers. The event was held on 5th of July 2025 at the Centre for Healthcare Innovation (CHI) and had many highlights including speciality talks and booths available. 

A medical student’s engagement session was held at the start where we were briefed about the training routes and progression in the Singapore healthcare system. Participants then broke out to attend different speciality talks such as psychiatry, dermatology as well as the newly-initiated Hospital Clinician scheme. 

Members also had the invaluable opportunity to try out some of their hands-on activities such as using a laparoscopy machine and also take part in a mindbending pathology quiz. It was a great and enriching atmosphere being able to connect with engaging consultants who are willing to stop by on their rest day and have a meaningful conversation with us. We thank NHG for organizing an incredible careers day event for us to learn about the different specialties they offer and quell our fears about working in Singapore.

BEACH CLEAN-UP

13 July 2025, Sunday

SMSUK had the pleasure of organising our annual SMSUK Gives Back - an initiative aimed at bringing our members together to do community service. This year, we carried out a Beach Clean-Up where volunteers were able to contribute to environmental sustainability in a meaningful way. 

Our members gathered at East Coast Park on a Sunday, equipped with metal tongs, buckets, with a shared purpose - to reduce marine litter and protect our coastal ecosystems. Afterwards, we ended the day on a high note at East Coast Lagoon Food Village where we exchanged the highlights of our day. As a small token of appreciation, SMSUK sponsored satays for all volunteers. A small gesture to recognise the effort and heart each person brought to the initiative.

Beyond the clean-up itself, the event served as a valuable opportunity for connection. Members bonded over shared experiences of studying abroad and exchanged stories about their upcoming summer plans. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all who took part, the committee members who worked tirelessly behind the scenes, and the Public Hygiene Council for their generous support and guidance. Your enthusiasm, dedication, and commitment were instrumental in making this event a success.

 

PEG Information Session 2025

21 June 2025, Saturday

The PEG Information Session is an annual online event organised by SMSUK with the aim of assisting members in making a more informed decision regarding the grant. This session aims to provide prospective applicants with a platform to engage with and learn from seniors who have successfully obtained the grant in previous years.

This year’s session saw the participation of over 50 attendees from a diverse range of UK medical schools, as well as Singaporean students intending to apply to UK institutions. Participants had an enriching and insightful experience, gaining a clearer understanding of the overall PEG application process, including the timeline, interview structure, and key considerations when applying. 

The speakers also shared their personal experiences and thoughtfully articulated the factors that influenced their own decisions to apply for the PEG. Attendees particularly appreciated the candid and honest exchange of perspectives, which offered a realistic and practical view of what to expect. The session also provided valuable guidance on how best to prepare for the application process, helping attendees feel more confident and equipped to take the next steps. 

We hope the insights shared not only clarified the application journey but also inspired more students to consider applying for the PEG. We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to our speakers for their time, this event would not have been possible without their support.
