Biological Engineering Student Organization (BESO)

BESO Group picture

LSU's very own Biological Engineering Student Organization consisting of active, ambitious BE students and your dedicated elected officers. BESO holds periodic meetings for members—though all BE and BE-prospect students are welcome. These catered, after-class meetings often involve guest speakers and informative discussions of interest for every BE undergrad including important information about applying for grad school and med school as well as starting careers in various industries. This is a great way to get involved and become proactive in your future plans.
