BEAM is a student association that intends to unite all master’s
and bachelor’s students in biomedical engineering at Ghent
University and Free University of Brussels since 2016.
Throughout the year we organise lectures, networking events,
company visits, social activities, a quiz and other events related
to the exhilarating field of biomedical engineering.
Additionally, it is our ambition to establish a direct link between
students and companies in the biomedical field.

Industry DayApr 22On Tuesday April 22th, the Biomedical Industry Day will take place in the Therminal (Hoverniersberg 24, 9000 Ghent). It is our pleasure to invite all master and interested bachelor students from UGent and VUB to this event. During the morning session, thesis pitches of the master thesis students will be presented. In the afternoon, a job fair and reception with thesis posters is organized. The job fair is a great occasion to network with companies and find internships or jobs. In the meantime, companies have the opportunity to organise a workshop or meet and greet with interested students. More information can be found on the website of BEAM.
