Birmingham Black and Ethnic Minority Scientists

As BEAMS, we recognise the lack of representation for Ethnic and Minority students in STEM fields, both in the lecture theatre and across the professional industry. As such, it’s our mission to tackle this issue by inviting guests to share their expertise as well as providing our members with the opportunity to socialise with each other and share their own experiences or concerns.

We focus on creating a safe and welcoming community for Ethnic and Minority STEM students, offering career guidance and support through collaboration with professionals, and working with the local community to host outreach events that inspire the next generation of STEM professionals.

If your looking for a community that will support you and allow you to meet other like-minded thinkers, introduce you to the breadth of post-graduate choices available, and allow you to play a direct role in inspiring future generations, come and join us at BEAMS!
