BME Student Fellowship
The BME Student Fellowship is aimed to fund top students in our graduate programs, where 100% of the proceed will directly go to students. Your contribution will have a positive and long-lasting impact in our student’s lives. Our goal is to raise $1 million in total fund. The Institute of Biomedical Engineering will provide a 1:1 match to your donation.
