We are seeking the help of all UQ Doctor of Medicine (MD) students in recognising teachers who make an exceptional contribution to their learning in the MD program. To acknowledge their work and thank them for their efforts, we invite you to nominate for the Medical Program Teaching Award.

When completing the nomination form, we encourage you to consider how your tutor/teacher approached your learning, the ways in which they motivated and inspired you, and any instances where they demonstrated exceptional dedication. The nomination process should only require a few minutes of your time.

Local clinical unit Medical Program Teaching Award winners will be eligible to be considered for the 2024 John Pearn Medallion, which is presented to the overall winner for teaching excellence.
