AMEI Education Grant Call

The AMEI Education Grant supports our community of passionate educators in their scholarly efforts to evaluate and improve healthcare education for enhanced learning.

About AMEI Education Grant

One of AMEI’s goals is to develop faculty as quality and innovative educators who are interested in educational research and scholarship. As such, educators will need to explore healthcare education literature to find new ways to teach better and enhance the learners' learning experience.

The AMEI Education Grant serves as a catalyst to stimulate the development, improvement and implementation of healthcare education research projects, innovative teaching and learning methods, educational assessment tools and strategies, or novel educational technology approaches and tools.

The awarded projects should produce measurable outcomes that can be published in peer-reviewed journal articles or resource-sharing platforms, such as MedEdPortal, thus contributing to the academic community. A successful project should be sustainable and benefit a wide community of learners.

Successful projects will receive funding of up to S$15,000, depending upon the scope and category of application. The Review Committee will decide under which category applications fall. Interprofessional projects are given priority.
