Students' Union and Medical Societies

Students' Union Membership

Lincoln Medical Society (MedSoc) is run by medical students, created primarily to offer a supportive and social community to all Lincoln medical students, and those interested in Medicine at the University of Lincoln. From educational resources and wellbeing advice to a variety of sports and socials, Lincoln MedSoc will cater for all. Like any medical society, we aim to be a poignant part of your Medical School experience, providing the social, educational and sporting framework to ensure you get the best out of medical school, and help guide your future in medicine. We will also be running a “Medic-parent” scheme to provide support and advice and to help you get the most out of your time at Lincoln Medical School. Surveys will be sent out so we can match you with likeminded second year students that share similar interests. Please look out for further communication about this in due course.

Find us on Instagram (@lincolnmedsoc) or click on our linktree. Keep an eye out on our Instagram and Linktree for freshers group chats which will be released in due course! Being a Nottingham student means that you have dual Student Union citizenship and will have access to the Nottingham Medical Society. You will be contacted separately by the Nottingham MedSoc with information about your membership and resources that may be of interest to you. For more information on the University of Lincoln MedSoc membership on the University of Lincoln Students' Union website.  

Whilst studying on the University of Lincoln campus, you will be able to access the Students’ Union Advice Centre who provide professional, independent, and impartial advice on academic issues, housing, finance, and wellbeing. You can find more information on the University of Lincoln Students' Union Advice pages.

It is also important to remember that the Student Leaders and your Academic Reps at Lincoln Students' Union are here to make sure that your experience as a student on the University of Lincoln campus is the best that it can be. If you have any feedback, issues or questions please do not hesitate one of these elected individuals.  

Sports

Lincoln MedSoc has a wide variety of MedSoc affiliated sports societies such as football, volleyball, badminton, and netball. We would love to see you participating in them, either on the committee or as a member of the society! We are very excited to run MedSoc specific sports teams and events and we intend to run regular sports teams with training sessions, fixtures and, hopefully, MedSoc Varsity. 

Educational

Lincoln MedSoc aims to meet any additional educational needs you may have. MedSoc offers a range of educational support through academic sub-societies, workshops, educational resources and external guest speakers. Here at Lincoln, we have many ‘MedSoc Affiliated Societies’, including (but not limited to) Trauma and Orthopaedics, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, and SCRUBS. If during the academic year, you are interested in creating a new ‘Medsoc Affiliated Society’, please approach the Medsoc Education Officer.

To join Lincoln Medical Society and get full access to all the benefits of a membership such as cheaper and priority tickets for popular events, including the Medic Ball, free access to socials across the year, and much more, visit the University of Lincoln Students' Union MedSoc webpage.
