Would you like to use your math and science skills to help people or the environment? How about designing a medical instrument that makes surgery easier or designing a way to prevent soil erosion? How about inventing the latest and greatest food snack? Or discovering a fuel for cars made from agricultural residue? Biological Systems Engineering brings engineering to life—working with living systems and the environment, by using biology, mathematics, and engineering to improve peoples' lives and our world. |

This major leads to rewarding careers in Biomedical Engineering, Food & Bioproducts Engineering, and Environmental and Water Resources Engineering. We provide students with a broad, flexible engineering background with a biological emphasis. A high percentage of graduates go to work immediately in well-paid positions. Many of our students go on to professional careers in engineering, law, medicine, food research, and academia. One thing is for certain—you'll never be bored in this field of study. Watch a video about the engineering majors in our department. (Windows Media Player needed.) Check out the video from The Incredible, Edible Car Competition, an annual event in our department, that gives students their first taste (pun intended) of engineering. Teams consider materials, design criteria and restraints, and then finish the competition by consuming their creation. |
