食品，农业和生物工程学学士学位

食品，农业和生物工程师致力于为社会服务并改善我们的环境。他们确定并解决与可再生能源，环境问题，生产安全，健康，营养增值的食品以及其他领域相关的工程问题，在这些领域中，可以设计天然地球系统以提高人类生产力，并保护其可持续发展和可持续发展。确保未来。对农业工程机械方面感兴趣的毕业生可能会找到用于农业，林业，建筑，运输，全球定位，国土安全以及草坪，花园和娱乐市场的制造设备的职业。对农业环境问题的工程解决方案感兴趣的毕业生可以在环境机构，咨询公司以及排水和灌溉设备的制造商与供应商中找到职业。食品工程专业的毕业生使
Food, agricultural and biological engineers strive to serve society and to improve our environment. They identify and solve engineering problems related to renewable energy, environmental issues, producing safe, healthy, nutritional-value-added food products, and other areas where natural earth systems can be engineered to be more productive for humanity, yet protected for a sustained and secure future. Graduates with an interest in the mechanical aspects of agricultural engineering may find careers manufacturing equipment for farming, forestry, construction, transportation, global positioning, homeland security, and lawn, garden and recreational markets. Graduates interested in engineering solutions for environmental issues in agriculture may find careers at environmental agencies, consulting firms, and manufacturers and suppliers of drainage and irrigation equipment. Graduates of the food engineering specialization use their skills to design sustainable and environmentally responsible food processes for manufacturing safe, tasty, healthy, convenient food products. Graduates of the biological engineering specialization have opportunities for careers in biotechnology, bio-energy, bio-products, biomedical applications, biochemical processing, pharmaceuticals and bio-instrumentation. These students may also choose to prepare themselves for admission to either veterinary or medical school. The department has a strong positive record of admissions to such professional schools. Graduates of the ecological engineering specialization will have career opportunities designing and restoring natural ecosystems like streams, wetlands and coastal systems. Graduates may work for the Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Department of Agriculture, the Army Corps of Engineers and environmental consulting firms. Some employers of food, agricultural and biological engineering graduates include Air Force Research Lab, Caterpillar Inc., Cooper Tire & Rubber Co., Cummins Inc., John Dreere, Kroger, Marathon Petroleum Corp., Nestle, and Tetra Tech.
