The AMECA Medical Elective Bursary Awards:

It is our belief that students who have the opportunity to undertake medical electives in Third World countries, emerge as better doctors and nurses with improved clinical skills. The range and scope of clinical practice undertaken on such electives is normally way beyond anything they might hope to experience in the UK, resulting in improved patient communication, diagnostics and overall confidence.

Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation

Our Global Health Division aims to harness advances in science and technology to save lives in developing countries. We work with partners to deliver proven tools—including vaccines, drugs, and diagnostics—as well as discover pathbreaking new solutions that are affordable and reliable. Equally important is innovation in how we bring health interventions to those who need them most. We invest heavily in vaccines to prevent infectious diseases—including HIV, polio, and malaria—and support the development of integrated health solutions for family planning, nutrition, and maternal and child health.

The Higher Education Academy



We believe that policy and pedagogic practice that works for international students also works for the benefit of all students. We promote a curriculum which is informed by a broader global view, that is taught in a range of ways and enables students to study abroad to learn more about themselves, their disciplines and their future professions.
