Graduate Student Advocacy Board

 

The BME Graduate Student Advocacy Board (GSAB) allows for students to engage in the BME community and provides student input to the graduate program. We exist to increase student visibility and accessibility of resources provided by Georgia Tech, Emory, the BME department and other student groups in an effort to continue improving the BME graduate student experience.

GSAB consists of many branches encompassing various areas of interest to the health of the program including, but not limited to:

  • BME Student Town Halls
  • Emory Lab Advocacy
  • TEP Lab Advocacy
  • First Year Student Advocacy
  • Graduate Committee Representation
  • Faculty Meeting Representation
  • Mentorship
  • Milestones and Qualifying Exam Preparation
  • New Student Recruitment
  • Orientation and Reorientation
  • PKU Program
  • Professional Development
  • Social and Events Planning
  • Student Feedback and Concerns
  • Underrepresented Minorities in BME
  • Wellness and Mental Health
  • Women in BME
