Residents, neighbors, and friends are invited to celebrate the tenth annual Community Day at Tufts. The event will be from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the academic quad. BMES will have a booth and need volunteers.

From experience, Tufts Community Day mostly attracts local children, so our activity will be targeted towards them. This year we will be crafting silk cocoon figures, shown below..

We don’t expect anyone to stay the entire day but it would be great if people could volunteer for an hour or so. You can sign up with your name and phone number at this link:

The Career Fair is right around the corner (Friday 9/28) and and this is a great opportunity for everyone– Freshmen through Seniors, and even Graduates– to talk to company representatives about internship and career opportunities available at the attending companies. Even if you aren’t looking for a job yet, everyone will need a solid resume and the ability to sell yourself– this is a good way to practice before the even more relevant SciTech career fair next Spring.

On Wednesday, 9/26, we will be holding a resume/career fair workshop during our meeting. We hope to have a guest speaker from industry that can talk specifically about what they look for when hiring, and we are creating a packet of additional useful information for building your resume that you can take home.

We hope that this will be a very useful and interesting meeting, and hope to see you all there. Pizza will be served.

Hi everyone!

Please note the time and location change of our general interest meeting! It will now be at 6:00pm in Scitech, Rm 136 (the big classroom in the middle). Thanks!

Come one and all for our BMES General Interest Meeting!

Some of you might have made homemade ice cream using plastic bags and ice cubes. BMES is taking it up a notch and making Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream. We’ll have vanilla and chocolate, and everyone will get a scoop. Bring your friends and faculty. Everyone is welcome (until we run out of liquid nitrogen haha).

At this meeting we will also watch a short video about some research coming from Tufts BME and discuss the plans we have for this upcoming year.
