To kick-off 2018, the Faculty of Medicine has launched a Design Challenge for all students, residents and fellows to have the opportunity to show their Faculty pride, get creative and have fun.
The Faculty’s Boutique sells a variety of branded apparel and other items. Through this contest, learners can compete for a chance to have their original design incorporated into a new Faculty of Medicine product. The winner(s) can boast bragging rights and will also receive $100 Boutique credit.
This contest is meant to inspire creativity and allow participants to think outside the box when it comes to designs that represent science, education and medicine – be original!
