Engineering in Biology and Medicine Society at UF
The EMBS chapter at the University of Florida is a student-led organization focused on empowering engineers to innovate at the intersection of healthcare and technology. Our mission is to provide students with the tools, connections, and experiences needed to grow academically, professionally, and personally in the field of biomedical engineering.
We foster a community where students from all backgrounds can access mentorship, industry insights, and hands-on opportunities. Through leadership development, research exposure, and interdisciplinary collaboration, we prepare students to make meaningful contributions to society through engineering in medicine.
