Time Is Running Out to Apply for 2018 AMA Indigenous Medical Scholarship

Applications for the AMA Indigenous Medical Scholarship close on 31 January, with the successful applicant receiving $10,000 each year for the duration of their course.

Fewer than 300 doctors working in Australia identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander – representing 0.3 per cent of the workforce – and only 286 Indigenous medical students were enrolled across the nation in 2017.
