BME PhD Council

Welcome

The BME PhD Council has the following goals:

  • to provide reports from the BME Committee and Primary Faculty Meeting student representatives,
  • to give the collective doctoral student body a unified voice in departmental affairs, and
  • to generate a closer sense of community among the PhD students.
The PhD Council organizes regular events for PhD students and faculty of the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Johns Hopkins University. These events include sports tournaments, hiking and sailing outings, departmental picnics, the PhD Retreat, summer student seminars, and many more. Details for the upcoming school year can be found on the Proposed Events page.
