The Department of Agricultural and
Biosystems Engineering offers a Bachelor of Science in Biosystems
Engineering under the auspices of the College of Engineering and a
Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Systems Management under the
auspices of the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.
ABET
accredited Biosystems engineers use engineering, math, and biology to
design systems to manage soil and water resources and to design and
develop biological and biomedical products. They work on projects
involving wise use of energy, materials, biochemicals, and recyclable
wastes. They combine technical knowledge, computer techniques, and
control systems for a deeper understanding of agriculture and biology
-- knowledge which someday may be used to design life support systems
for colonies on other planets. Students may specialize in water
resource engineering or biological engineering.
