Biomedical Engineering Graduate Association

The BME Graduate Student Association is the go-to student body recognized by the Faculty of Engineering as well as the university-wide Graduate Student Association. Biomedical Engineering graduate students may get involved in BME GSA.  

BME GSA provides services to full-time and part-time graduate students including: 

  • Speaking on behalf of its students in program, department, faculty, and university wide councils 
  • Enhance the experience of graduate students through social and recreational events 
  • Promote exchange of information between students across different labs within the department 

The council meets regularly to discuss and vote on positions relating to current events within departmental/faculty/university administration levels. These meetings are open, and BME Grad students are encouraged to join in and voice their opinions. 

Elections being held

Council member elections will be held, and elected members will be announced. Once announced, students will be able to contact the council for more information or to voice any concerns.
