Dear Colleagues,
In light of an expanding mandate and a commitment to ensure inclusive and transparent Faculty governance, the Undergraduate Medical Education (UGME) program, McGill Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, is seeking one member involved in teaching but without a leadership role in UGME from Campus Outaouais to join the following committee in the role of ‘member at large’:
- Undergraduate Medical Education Prize Nomination Subcommittee
Representative: Prize Nomination Subcommittee
The nominee should be a faculty member within the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences involved in teaching but without a leadership role in UGME from Campus Outaouais.
The Prize Nomination Subcommittee term of representation is three (3) years, renewable. The Committee meets two (2) times per academic year. The Chair may convene additional meetings when necessary. The meetings are held via video-conferencing to accommodate members at a distance.
About the Prize Nomination Subcommittee
The responsibility of the Prize Nomination Subcommittee (PNS) is delegated from the Students Promotions Committee (SPC). The mandate of the Prize Nomination Subcommittee is to assist the SPC in the recommendation of nominees for non-discipline or non-course prizes. Its scope will include review of the potential nominees’ academic files, personal letters, prize applications, interview with the nominees in order to make a final recommendation to the SPC. Some non-discipline or non-course prizes may not require the input of the PNS as the winner is based on top grade. Specific attribution details of prizes can be found on the e-calendar of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences.
All nominations must be submitted online and include a few sentences describing the nominee’s interest and the contributions one believes they would bring to the committee. Submissions will be reviewed by the Faculty Council Nominating Committee, which in turn will make recommendations to the Vice-Principal (Health Affairs) and Dean of Medicine and Health Sciences, David Eidelman.
Please note that the deadline for submissions is January 15, 2021. Should you have questions about the nominating procedure, please do not hesitate to contact Leah Moss at leah.moss@mcgill.ca. For questions about the above-mentioned position or committee mandate, please contact Dr. Mélanie Mondou melanie.mondou@mcgill.ca.
We look forward to receiving your nomination via the online form!
Best regards,
Leah Moss, PhD
