Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Biological Systems Engineering] From Kansas State University

Biological systems engineers develop the techniques and processes to work with living systems, including microbes, plants and animals. They provide input to produce and process food, fiber, energy, chemical feedstocks and pharmaceuticals. They also emphasize efficient use of soil and water resources and environmental protection to improve water quality, control air pollution and clean up contaminated soil.

Careers

Biological systems engineers apply engineering, physical and biological principles to living systems in a diverse world of opportunities. They design machines and structures; manage natural resources such as soil, water, crops and forests; analyze and design ways to maintain healthy environments for humans and animals; process food, feed, fiber and waste products; and develop efficient applications of computers and automatic controls for agricultural operations and processes.
