The Symposium is aimed to bring together the biomedical science and engineering community from the Norman campus and the clinicians and scientists from the Health Sciences Center campus in unprecedented fashion. The symposium will engage clinicians, entrepreneurs, basic scientists, engineers, and key players from the bioscience industry, all aligned in the collective vision of building new partnerships and spreading awareness. The leadership of the symposium includes members of both campuses, including clinical input to ensure a welcoming and enabling environment for clinicians to attend.

ASME Begins Thousands Strong Campaign

ASME is looking to raise $1,000 for their Thousands Strong campaign. The money will go towards next year’s travel expenses to E-Fest, the national ASME conference.

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) has set a purpose to engage, enrich and connect engineering students at OU. They host a variety of social events, skills trainings, tech talks, and community outreach events. ASME has something valuable for every student.

Your contributions would help to alleviate stress for students having to fund their own travel. In addition, your contributions would also help ASME to continue to host all of their year-round events.
