Academic Accelerator - Bachelor of Engineering - Biosystems Engineering - Forest Engineering

Biosystems engineers work to ensure our communities have safe and plentiful food to eat, pure water to drink, clean fuel and energy sources, and a safe, healthy environment in which to live. As a student in biosystems engineering, Students will use principles of engineering and biology to solve problems in biological systems, agriculture, natural resources and the environment.

The Forest Engineering option the only one of its kind in the South involves preparing graduates to be able to apply of engineering principles and techniques for sustainable management and maintenance of trees, soil, water and other natural resources with the forest ecosystem.

Forest engineering is therefore a hybrid of engineering, forest and management that is focused on efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly utilization of these resources. Therefore, this option prepares students for productive professional careers in the forest products industry and related natural resource and environmental systems sectors.
