Graduate Biomedical Engineering Society Budget

FY2013 (July 1 2012 - June 30, 2013)

The mission of the Graduate Biomedical Engineering Society (GBMES) is to bring knowledge and networking opportunities in the field of biomedical engineering both at Carnegie Mellon University and in the professional community to its members. GBMES shall also exist as a forum for discussion among the Carnegie Mellon community who would like to share ideas or opinions regarding biomedical engineering at Carnegie Mellon University or abroad. GBMES membership is open to all Carnegie Mellon students and does not discriminate based on race, gender, religion, ethnicity, country of origin, or sexual orientation. Graduate students of the BME department are automatically members of this organization.
