Overview
The Biological Systems Engineering (BSE) program provides students with an opportunity to combine their interests in biological sciences and engineering. While there are many specialty areas within the discipline, the teaching program in BSE focuses primarily in two areas: Bioprocess Engineering and Land and Water Resources Engineering. The department offers degree programs at the B.S., M.S. and Ph.D levels.
Educational Objectives for Undergraduate Program
The overall educational goal of the BSE program is to graduate biological systems engineers to support sustainable production, processing, and utilization of biological materials and to protect natural resources. The BSE program seeks to prepare its graduates to become successful in the practice of biological systems engineering or in the pursuit of advanced degrees in BSE or other complementary disciplines. Specifically, the BSE program seeks to prepare its graduates:
- to solve engineering problems using the fundamental principles of science, mathematics, and engineering;
- to engage in life-long learning and professional development;
- to be effective communicators and team members; and
- to function in a professional and ethical manner.
