Professional Development
The Professional Development group aims to help students explore career opportunities and build professional connections in neuroscience, optics, and bioengineering. Each semester, we host “Lunch & Learn” events featuring industry speakers to showcase diverse career paths and encourage dialogue between students and professionals. Additionally, we plan to organize an annual career panel, resume workshops, headshot sessions, and other activities designed to support networking and career growth. Our group was founded in 2025 and is led by students in the Biomedical Engineering and Neuroscience graduate programs.
