Applications are now closed for 2024, but will reopen in spring 2025.
We invite all current medical students to apply for a position on the Association of Women Surgeons (AWS) National Medical Student Committee! Students who are graduating and taking a gap year prior to residency or IMGs taking a mandatory gap year (e.g. required hospital service year) are also eligible to apply. This committee is driven to not only promoting female medical students interested in surgery throughout the world, but it also represents a tight knit and goal-driven group of student leaders who we hope will continue advocating for women throughout their careers!
Welcome Students
An AWS student membership is a great way to prepare for a successful surgical career. As a member, you are part of a community of peers with access to exceptional tools, resources and role models. The student committee strives to bring you programs and services that will make a difference during your time as a medical student.
AWS sets the stage for a successful career supplying tools and information to faculty, counselors, and students. Through the AWS Student Chapters, students find a strong community for sharing experiences, learning best practices and developing leadership skills.
Student membership is $25/year and open to all students in medical school with a career interest in surgery. Student members may not vote or hold office.
