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.
