Biomedical Engineering Society
The Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) is a professional society for students interested in the vast field of bioengineering such as tissue engineering, development of prosthetics and much more within the subclasses of regenerative medicine, biosensors and multimodal imaging. Our main interest is to promote and enhance biomedical engineering knowledge worldwide and its utilization for the health and well-being of humankind. The national organization also has information about BME careers.
Our goal as a student chapter is to connect students with industry, research and one another.
In Fall 2010, BMES hosted a barbeque, sponsored a panel on how to get into graduate school, had lunch with pharmaceutical professionals who shared career advice, and sponsored the SBME Seminar Series. We've also done a lot of similar activities in 2011. We have a great time, whether it is socially or professionally and encourage you to join!
Please plan to attend these upcoming BMES events:
