UQ Biomedical Engineering Society (UQ BMES)

Hi there! We are UQ BMES, EST. 2023. Moving on from UQ EWH, we focus on increasing research and industry connections for club members and broadens exposure to the biomedical engineering community here in UQ and all of Queensland

UQ BMES welcomes all who are interested in biomedical engineering and technology and wanting to explore or work within the field. With new study pathways for biomedical engineering at UQ introduced in 2021, BMES provides a social platform for students to connect with their fellow BME students and expand their interest in biomedical engineering.

We are also driven to connect students to biomedical research and industry through our society. Whether you’re looking to make new friends at university, interested in the field or wanting to get connected to research and industry, we encourage you to come join us!

We are planning on hosting a few different types of events throughout the year so come find us on market day or keep updated by connecting with us on social media. We look forward to meeting you at our events!
