New Student Liaison Officer on IICMS committee

A new committee post called the Student’s Liaison Officer has been created.  This post will be a direct link between the students and the IICMS committee. 

The current Student Liaison Officer is Sean Walsh.  Sean was a graduate of the BSc Clinical Measurement in 2006.  He currently works in the Cardiac Department in St James Hospital.  Having been a student in Clinical Measurement he is the ideal candidate for being your link to us here on the committee.

We would encourage all students but particularly those in 4th year to become student members of the IICMS. Currently membership is free.

Clinical Placements:

We would like to wish all 3rd years heading off their first clinical placements the best of luck in their 3 chosen specialities.  During your clinical placement you will be see the practical side of the theory you learn in lectures demonstrated. We would advise that you make the most of your placements and remember that this is your opportunity to learn those essential practical skills –creating a scientist - patient relationship, dealing with a difficult patient or parent, knowing what do to do in a critical situation or emergency, complex prompt interpretation of studies, dealing with medical staff including consultant, medical terminology and much more.

Students:

This section is for all students studying Clinical Measurement Science.  This includes students of the BSc Clinical Measurement Science, DIT.  

The IICMS primarily has an education function and as students you form a very important section in our industry.  

Development for this section includes:  

·      Lecture notes from specialist lecturers working in clinical measurement science.

·      Application for student membership.  We aim to have online payment facilities for members in the near future.  Student membership to the IICMS is €15 per annum.   As a member you will receive a seasonal newsletter with all the latest news in the industry.  You will also be entitled to access to the members only section on this website. 

·      Information on post graduate training and further development of the current BSc. 

·      Information on 3^rd and 4^th year student placements and student locum posts.
