Photo Contest for SMP Faculty, Staff, & Students
Since the official launch of the Southern Medical Program (SMP) in September 2011, our program has experienced exponential growth.
- More than 800 health professionals across the Interior involved with teaching UBC medical students and residents.
- 128 students now enrolled with the SMP with our inaugural class graduating next spring.
- Over 50 education leads and admin staff helping deliver our program across our distributed sites.
With so many people and lots of kilometres in between, it’s tough to share all of the remarkable opportunities to live, work, train, and study in one of the most desirable regions in the world.
To showcase what we are all about, the SMP is hosting a photo contest for SMP faculty, staff, and students.
Our contest theme is “MedEd in the BC Interior.” A $25 iTunes gift card to be awarded in each of four categories:
(1) Scenic
(2) Best Commute
(3) Student Life
(4) Faculty/Staff Life
Contest Deadline: Email submissions to warren.brock@ubc.ca by 12:00 pm (PST) on Friday, September 19th, 2014.
For each submission, tell us a little about the photo and how it highlights where you live, work, train, or study. Kindly request permission from any persons to be included in your photo submissions, however, please do not include any patients. Also, use the highest resolution possible on your camera for optimal image quality. Read through the contest Terms & Conditions for more information.
Photos will be shared through the Southern Medical Program’s website (www.smp.med.ubc.ca), printed or electronic publications, and social media channels: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. Feel free to post your entries to Twitter (@UBCSMP) or Instagram with the hashtags #smpmeded and #ubc.
Winning entries will also be printed and framed for display in SMP administrative offices.
For more info, contact Warren Brock at warren.brock@ubc.ca or 250.807.8601.
Grab your camera and start snapping. Have a great summer!
