WHAT IS GUMS?

"Griffith University Medicine Society is dedicated to ensuring students have the best possible

medical school experience as physicians in training"

Focusing on wellbeing, academic support, advocacy and social aspects of medical school life, GUMS aims to ensure everyone

feels connected to their medical school.

The Griffith University Medicine Society (GUMS) was established in 2005 and currently represents over 700 medical students.

It is a respected student organisation that provides support through its key academic, advocacy, wellbeing and social

portfolios. Membership is open to all medical students enrolled in Griffith University.

Through GUMS there exists student representation on the school and education committees to promote the rights and

welfare of medical students at Griffith University. We also have representation on the Australian Medical Students

Association (AMSA), which is the national body representing medical students in Australia. With a growing number of events

and activities every year, our presence within both the local community and the national medical student community is

continuing to expand.

In 2017, our new executive is committed to assisting students meet their academic goals, provide opportunities for personal

and professional growth, advocate for medical students locally and nationally and create a social and enjoyable atmosphere

for study. These goals are met through the various events and functions that GUMS holds throughout the year, including

social, academic and wellbeing events.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Thank you for considering partnering with GUMS in 2017. Griffith University Medicine Society has gone from strength to

strength over the past ten years and this is in no small part thanks to our faithful sponsors who have continued to support

us as we have continued to grow.

Over the past three years, GUMS has taken significant steps to improve our professional image, organisation and financial

management. This has included renovating our social media and online presences to create seamless ticket and merchandise

sales, instituting an improved membership scheme, and developing a clear and consistent approach to our marketing and

publications. This allows the hard work that goes on behind the scenes to be easily accessible and utilised by our students

and alumni.

We have also continued to reach out by involving clinicians working within the field into our academic and wellbeing

portfolios. Academic titleholders are expected to have an increasing role in our academic program, building on their interest

and involvement in events such as Careers Night and Formative OSCEs. We plan to engage with clinicians in the field through

networking events under our new women’s portfolio. We hope that this allows us to present even great opportunities for

you as sponsors to be reaching the medical profession on a wider level. Through each of our portfolios we hope to deliver a

diverse range of academic, social and professional events that appeal to students across all year levels.

We are thrilled to present you with this prospectus, and hope you can see our vision for where GUMS is headed for 2017

and into the future. It would be a pleasure to speak with you and answer any questions that you may have about how we

can best meet your needs. We depend on your support to continue the valuable work that we do to support every medical

student at Griffith, and hope that you are as excited as we are to continue this well into the future.

Kind Regards

Kirsty Whitmore

MESSAGE FROM THE SPONSORSHIP OFFICER

Thank you for taking the time to read the GUMS sponsorship prospectus 2017. With the continuing support of our valued

sponsors, our medical student society has continued to expand to support the endeavours of the 700 Griffith University

medical students. We expect this year’s academic, social and wellbeing events to be even larger and to include a number of

level.

We offer a wide range of impressive sponsorship opportunities. My role is to help tailor and design a suitable sponsorship

package to suit your organisation’s needs, to consolidate and strengthen our partnerships. Our events will be a platform to

engage and showcase your brand and services, or to promote education or professional development. They are designed to

offer sponsors multiple opportunities to connect with academics, administrators from both the private and public health

sectors, doctors and future medical professionals. On behalf of the entire GUMS team, I hope you’ll choose to partner with

us for what’s shaping to be an exciting year yet! Please do not hesitate to contact GUMS sponsorship - I look forward to

collaborating with you and am excited and committed to the potential ahead

Kind Regards
