This enables the School to support and journey with students seamlessly from the time they are admitted, and progress with them through medical school, graduation and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>We also want to be more deliberate in actively nurturing our students\u2019 personal and professional development\u2014enabling them to improve their self-awareness, relational competence and resilience. These latter goals would be achieved through various avenues, including our longitudinal mentorship programmes (Houses and EnRICH), service-learning opportunities and numerous student life activities such as sports, team-building events and near-peer mentorship.<\/p>\n<p>We envision building a community of practice, of like-minded faculty, mentors and students.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What do we need to know about OfS?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A\/Prof Aw:<\/strong> The Office for Students is made up of three teams, namely Admissions, Student Care &amp; Support (SCS) and Student Life &amp; Development (SLD).<\/p>\n<p>Our Admissions team is the first touchpoint for prospective students who are aspiring to become healthcare practitioners in the future. Our team specialises in engaging potential students through outreach programmes such as NUS Open Day. As we work hard to attract students who embody the right attributes and values, we also continually improve processes in our annual Admissions Exercise to select these students to join our community at NUS Medicine. We work closely with our Admissions Committee, which comprises NUS Medicine faculty members from various medical disciplines and allied healthcare professions.<\/p>\n<p>OfS recognises that while training to be a healthcare practitioner is fulfilling, it is also demanding. Our Student Care &amp; Support team is committed to ensuring that all our undergraduate medical students have adequate access to academic, financial, social and emotional support in their journey with us. Our team provides a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space for students to consult us in relation to any issues they may be facing.<\/p>\n<p>We believe in nurturing our students to find and develop their professional identity as competent healthcare practitioners, as they acquire content knowledge and hone mastery in their clinical skills required to serve patients in the community. Through various types of experiences outside the classroom supported by our Student Life &amp; Development team, we provide opportunities for students to build self-awareness, self-understanding and self-efficacy, improve their relational competence, and uncover their best potential as a professional, lifelong learner and human being. Relevant programmes, opportunities, events and activities can be found in the Student Handbook.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color:#f3e9e5;margin-bottom:16px;padding:20px;width:100%\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-4\" style=\"text-align: center\">\n        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/dossier-02-img-02.jpg\" alt=\"Photo of Dr Inthrani Raja Indran\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-31736\" style=\"text-align:center;width:100%;max-width:320px;margin:0 auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/dossier-02-img-02.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/dossier-02-img-02-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/dossier-02-img-02-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/dossier-02-img-02-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/medicine.nus.edu.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/dossier-02-img-02-1024x1536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;margin-top:1em;margin-bottom:0.5em\">\n          <strong>Dr Inthrani Raja Indran<\/strong>\n        <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 0.88em;line-height: 1.2;text-align: left;color: #000;font-family: 'Lato-Regular';margin-top: 0;margin-bottom: 0.5em\"><em>Assistant Dean <br \/>Office for Students, <br \/>NUS Medicine<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-8\" style=\"text-align: left\">\n<p><strong>Q: What assistance does the Student Care &amp; Support (SCS) team provide?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr Inthrani:<\/strong> We will be able to assist you in these three broad areas:<\/p>\n<table style=\"width:100%;border:0;margin:12px 0;text-align:left\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width:24px;border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p>1. <\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width:calc(100%-24px);border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:0\">Mental Well-Being Support<\/p>\n<table style=\"width:100%;border:0;margin:0;text-align:left\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width:24px;border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p>&#8211; <\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width:calc(100%-24px);border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p>We provide a safe space for students to share their concerns.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width:24px;border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p>&#8211; <\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width:calc(100%-24px);border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p>Students may also independently seek professional help at University Counselling Services (UCS).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width:24px;border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p>&#8211; <\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width:calc(100%-24px);border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p>Full-time NUS students can receive up to eight free counselling services for full candidature.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width:24px;border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p>&#8211; <\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"width:calc(100%-24px);border:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:top\">\n<p style=\"font-family: 'SourceSerifPro-Bold'\">We understand that students may not be able to access counselling services easily because of their busy schedules.
