Aviation and Space Medicine Scholarship
The International Academy of Aviation and Space Medicine has a well-established Scholarship Programme, the aim of which is to enable young physicians commencing a career in aviation and space medicine to undertake training in the specialty. The scholarship can be used to facilitate attendance at a formal training course, or participation in a work programme (one year or more, structured towards educational goals) in a recognised aerospace medicine institute.
The scholarship award is a grant of up to NZ $ 32,000 but more than one scholarship for amounts less than this may be awarded in any year, depending on the applications received.
Applications for awards may be submitted between 1 February and 31 July each year. There are two forms to complete: Part I by the applicant and Part II by their sponsor. Both can be found under the ‘Scholarship’ tab on the home page of the iaasm.org web site.
