The BME External Advisory Board (EAB) comprises nationally distinguished leaders from industry, academia and government who provide advice on the department’s academic, research, outreach and other programs.
The EAB meets once a year with students, faculty, and administrators to provide input and feedback for the department to achieve its vision of becoming a national leader in training biomedical engineers who will develop the newest innovative health care technologies. The faculty uses the board’s feedback to improve the department’s programs, services and facilities.
