Biological Engineering (BE)

Biological Engineering is that branch of the engineering profession which deals with engineering problems encountered in biological systems. The responsibilities of the Biological Engineer may include finding solutions to address the need for more complex food-producing systems, controlling and monitoring the deterioration of the earth’s environment, autonomy in agriculture and biological systems, the use of new technologies in robotics and artificial intelligence, and the creation of new engineering designs based on the inherently creative characteristics of living systems.

The curriculum in Biological Engineering is designed to give the student a thorough grounding in the basic sciences of mathematics, physics, chemistry, taken with and followed by a series of courses in the engineering and biological sciences.

The educational objectives of the program are as follows:

  1. To educate students in the academic discipline of Biological and Biomedical Engineering so that they can formulate and solve engineering problems involving biological systems.
  2. To ensure that students develop effective written and oral communication skills.
  3. To educate students in the use of the latest computer-based technology in engineering and engineering tools.
  4. To develop the students’ ability to work individually and in teams to complete engineering and design projects.
  5. To prepare students for employment in engineering jobs or for study in graduate and professional schools and for continual professional development.
     

Ecological and Environmental Engineering Emphasis. This emphasis addresses environmental problems through the application of basic engineering in concert with principles of ecology and biology. Man has shown repeatedly that working opposition to natural processes leads either to failure or to expensive and energy-intensive temporary solutions. Ecological engineering attempts to apply and emulate the rules that govern natural systems in order to meet human needs in ways that are sustainable. This emphasis prepares students to take up careers in the environmental sector or government agencies.

Bioenergy Emphasis. Biological engineers can engage in environmental conservation and Bioenergy technologies use renewable biomass resources to produce an array of energy-related products including electricity, liquid, solid, and gaseous fuels, heat, chemicals, and other high volume materials. Students in this emphasis area gain knowledge in the fundamentals of energy production, thermodynamics, alternative energy sources and biomass conversion into biofuels. The Bioenergy emphais prepares students to take up a career in the energy sector industry or government agencies, as well as pursue research in energy production from renewable sources.

Biomedical Engineering (BME)

Biomedical Engineering is a growing interdisciplinary field of engineering that integrates engineering and life sciences to solve problems associated with the human body and human health. The curriculum is built on a core of fundamental math/physics/engineering courses which is similar across all engineering disciplines. It is distinguished by a wide range of life science courses and specialized biomedical engineering courses such as computational modeling, biomechanics, biomaterials, and bioinstrumentation. It is designed to comply with current requirements for ABET accreditation. Apart from preparing students to work in biomedical industry, the B.S. in Biomedical Engineering is an excellent foundation for graduate study in many fields, including further study of biomedical engineering, and preparation for entry into professional schools, including medical school, dental school, veterinary school, and law school. Although there are no concentrations, a student may emphasize in an area of interest through deliberate selection of engineering electives.

Premedical Emphasis. The Biological Engineering curriculum offers a premedical emphasis which not only leads to a degree in Biological Engineering but also prepares students for acceptance into most medical, dental, and veterinary schools. Students completing this program have demonstrated their ability to tackle tough subjects, perform well under stressful conditions, work together in teams, learn new material, and achieve ambitious goals - characteristics desired by the best medical, dental, and veterinary schools.

The Biological Engineering and the Biomedical Engineering curricula are offered by the Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering which is jointly administered by the College of Engineering and the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences.

The Biological Engineering is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, http://www.abet.org.
