Biomedical Engineering Society

The University of Virginia student chapter of the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) works to promote the exchange of ideas among students and faculty. We coordinate various educational, social, sporting, and service events throughout the year while reaching out to students who are interested in the application of science and engineering principles to medicine. Our chapter is comprised of undergraduate and graduate students within the BME department as well as students from other university departments who have an interest in BME. Our chapter has a strong record of service within the UVa and central Virginia communities and has been recognized by the National Biomedical Engineering Society several times.
