Joran
President
As president/vice president, you are ultimately responsible for everything that happens within BEAM. You maintain an overview and take initiative where necessary. You lead the meetings and represent Beam as an official association at UGent. The best part is that you have a lot of contact with biomedical engineering students, but also with many other people in other student associations. Moreover, because of the sense of responsibility, you quickly learn how to lead an organization and cooperate efficiently with people both inside and outside BEAM.
Marie
Vice-president
As the vice president, you're like the right hand of the president, working closely together to steer BEAM toward success! You're the go-to person for everything BEAM-related, from planning awesome events to being the friendly face of our association at UGent. You also take charge of leading the meetings of the event managers, ensuring that everything runs smoothly. But the best part? You get to hang out with all the biomedical engineering students and organize super fun events and even a trip.
All the responsibility is shaping you rapidly into a leader. You're learning how to work smoothly with everyone in and out of BEAM, making you a real team player.
Mathieu
Treasurer
Being the treasurer of BEAM means keeping track of our revenues and expenses, managing our budgets and applying for the UGent grants. It comes with some administration now and then, but also with a nifty Excel file. You get to be involved in all parts of the organization, yet you have the freedom to complete your tasks whenever you have the time. If you are someone that the board can really count on (pun intended), treasury might be a perfect fit for you!
Bram
Web&ICT
As Web & ICT, your main focus is of course maintaining the website. Basically, you get to play around with our website and make it look awesome. You post our events, enable online registrations and besides that you can even completely redesign certain parts of the site. No worries, we use a platform that makes creating a website very user-friendly! If you want to do something creative, this is definitely something for you. Besides that, BEAM has been the perfect place to work with enthusiastic people and I liked it very much!
Vic
International Relations
As responsible for International Relations within the BEAM board, your main task is to organize a multi-day BEAM trip outside of Belgium, combining a company visit with teambuilding activities for the participating Biomedical Engineering students. Besides this, you are in charge of building and maintaining relationships with international companies and student associations abroad, helping to strengthen BEAM’s global network and create new international opportunities for students.

From managing social media accounts to organizing promotional events, this role offers a dynamic opportunity to showcase your creativity and communication skills.
