What is CUBE?
CUBE (Club for Undergraduate Biomedical Engineering) is a student-run club with over 600 members, whose mandate is to promote biomedical engineering at the undergraduate level. Our goal is to disseminate knowledge pertaining to the biomedical field as well as to serve as a point of contact between students, researchers and industry. If you have a passion for biomedical engineering or are interested in learning more about biomedical engineering (including opportunities in industry and academia), CUBE is the club for you!
What kind of events does CUBE host?
We host a variety of events, including:
– Information sessions on the latest research in the fields of biomedical engineering, medicine and biotechnology
– Speaker seminars that bring together both industry leaders and academic researchers
– Tours of various academic and industry hospitals and laboratories
– Workshops to learn important wet lab and dry lab skills in biomedical engineering
– An annual biomedical engineering design competition
