AUMSA - Auckland University Medical Students' Association

AUMSA - Auckland University Medical Students' Association AUMSA is a student-run organisation which represents Auckland Medical Students and hosts a wide range of social, sporting and educational events. Let's face it.

Medical school isn't easy. With considerable academic pressure being added to existing commitments, medical school will often be one of the greatest challenges students have faced. Elected and governed by the student body of the medical school, AUMSA, the Auckland University Medical Students' Association, is an association that exists to represent and act in the interests of Auckland Medical Stude

nts. From the little things, to the bigger picture, we work to make your life that much easier. Each year, we bring you numerous social, sporting, and educational events, such as the Annual Medical School Ball, pub crawls, parties, BBQ's, staff-student debates, inter-faculty sporting tournaments, information seminars and medical symposiums. What's more, we liaise with the faculty to improve the curriculum and voice the concerns of the student body. In addition, for your viewing pleasure, we publish the notorious medical school magazine - (ND) New Doctor. As a member, you will have access to and receive discounts on the aforementioned events but also get the opportunity to apply for academic travel funds, meet wizened students, and more ! This is your student association, we're just here to help.

🌟 AUMSA End-of-Year Update 🌟

Kia ora koutou,

As we wrap up an incredible year, here are a few quick updates from your AUMSA team:

1️⃣ Support at Board of Examiners Meetings 💬
If you get an email asking you to meet with staff as part of a Board of Examiners meeting, remember: you have the right to bring a support person — either someone you choose or a University-appointed person. Please reach out if you’d like more info on this.

2️⃣ Conference Leave Submission 📄
We’ve submitted a proposal asking for guaranteed conference leave for students attending student-focused conferences and for those presenting primary research at any conference. We’ll keep you posted as this moves forward!

3️⃣ AUMSA AGM – This Friday! 🗳️
A reminder that our AUMSA Annual General Meeting is happening this Friday, 7th November at 6pm. Come along to hear updates, ask questions, and help shape the direction for next year.

4️⃣ Urgent Care Series ✅
Our Urgent Care teaching series has officially wrapped up! Thanks to everyone who came along and got involved. Keep an eye out for our quiz competition coming up in the next few weeks — it’ll be a fun way to test your knowledge (and win some prizes 👀).

5️⃣ Ngā mihi nui ❤️
A huge thank you from all of us at AUMSA for your support and involvement this year. It’s been a massive year, and we’re so proud of what our medical student community has achieved.

Enjoy a well-deserved break — we can’t wait to see what 2026 brings!

Ngā manaakitanga,
Your AUMSA Executive Team
