Welcome!

We, the members of the Biomedical Engineering Society, hereby associate ourselves to promote the profession of biomedical engineering through the organized effort of this group in study, research, and discussion of the fields of biomedical engineering and the dissemination of knowledge thereby gained. The chapter shall promote membership in the Biomedical Engineering Society by acquainting the student body with the ideas, purposes and objectives of the Biomedical Engineering Society. The Biomedical Engineering Society will be a forum for social interaction of peers, academic enhancement, professional development, and career planning.

Mission Statement

The Biomedical Engineering Society has a particularly difficult and important job of helping to educate its members with respect to what Biomedical Engineering is, as well as the role and responsibilities that these future engineers will have on their profession and society in general. Important requirements of ABET accreditation are that students gain the “ability to recognize the need for, and engage in, life long learning, the ability to apply engineering solutions in a global and societal context in consideration of contemporary issues, and the ability to recognize professional and ethical responsibility”. The Biomedical Engineering Society has an important role in contributing to the Department’s ability to provide students with these skills. We look forward to adding to the societies membership, with many exciting activities, including industrial tours, attendance to scientific meetings, academic competitions, invited speakers, and of course, social events, which the society is becoming known for. Our expectation is that the Biomedical Engineering Society becomes the leading society in the college and the university, and that after graduation, the students are as proud of their participation in the Biomedical Engineering Society as they are in their degree from the Department.
