Do any of these describe you?
I want an Internship or Co-Op during my time as a student. I want to work in a lab and contribute to a field/domain of my interest while learning the necessary skills to do so. I’m nervous about being a BME student, and have questions about how I can best prepare and succeed here. I want to learn as much as possible about all the different BME fields I can go into before I start my job search. I want to meet other people in the major and those with similar interests. I want free food. BMES can help. And here’s how:
