Elective Photo Competition

Welcome to the Elective Photography Competition 2014! This was the idea of Anni Rogers-Angeles and is being run as part of the WAMSS Academic Events program. It is hoped that this competition will help showcase both the artistic talents and the hard work of UWA students on electives. In the future we plan to combine this event with the Alan Charter’s Elective Prize. For this year, funding has generously been granted by the UWA Student Guild Special Projects Grants.

Prizes:
Best Elective Photograph - $200
For the photograph taken during an elective placement, anywhere in the world which best represents the aims of the final year clinical elective. Not only should it showcase the work of UWA Medical Students abroad but it may address important sociocultural and global health issues.
Runner up prize of $50

Most Beautiful Photograph - $200
For the most beautiful, artistic and/or technically proficient photograph taken on a clinical elective or during travels associated with the elective.
Runner up of $50
