Surgical Societies
University Surgical Societies
Surgical societies are one of the best ways you can demonstrate your interest in a career in surgery while you are still a medical student. Societies exist at nearly all medical schools in the country and can provide members with a range of opportunities from extra skills teaching to networking and socialising. Societies run events and meetings for members, and will introduce them to other potential, and accomplished surgeons.
A representative from each of the societies is invited to join the College's Medical Students Liaison Committee. A list of university surgical societies that are members of the College's MSLC can be found below.

If your medical school's surgical society is not listed or you are unable to contact them, email us and we’ll try to put you in touch with your society. If yours is one of the few medical schools not on this list and you would like to set up a society, please email us to let us know so that your society can be represented on the MSLC.
