Ringkasan program

Bioproducts engineering is a specialization within the bioproducts and biosystems engineering major, offered through the College of Science and Engineering (CSE), in association with the College of Food, Agricultural, and Natural Resource Sciences (CFANS). The curriculum covers all aspects of the design process, including communication, teamwork, economics, ethics, and safety. During the first two years students will learn the basics of bioproducts and acquire advanced skills in math and science as well as training in communication. In the junior and senior years they will focus learning on the structure, properties, processing, and performance of bioproducts. Bioproducts Engineers harness the molecular building blocks of renewable resources to develop and manufacture environmentally friendly industrial and consumer products.

Persyaratan masuk bagi mahasiswa internasional

Students must have completed the coursework through high school graduation. They must complete ten courses before admission to the program. They are expected to complete, at a minimum, the University's core subject requirements such as four years of English with an emphasis on writing, including instruction in reading and speaking skills and in literary understanding and appreciation; three years of mathematics including one year each of elementary algebra, geometry, and intermediate algebra; three years of science including one year each of biological and physical science, and including a laboratory experience; three years of social studies including one year each of U.S. history and geography; two years of a single second language; and one year of visual and/or performing arts including instruction in the history and interpretation of the art form. Individual circumstances are also considered as part of the overall assessment of each application and may factor into individual decisions. Students should have obtained a minimum TOEFL score of 550 in paper based 79 for internet based, 6.5 for IELTS, and 80 for MELAB. If students have taken the ACT exam and scored 17 or lower on the English or reading section (or SAT critical reading [verbal] score of 420 or lower) need to provide English language scores.
