The Bachelor of Science in Biological Engineering (BE) at Louisiana State University offers a unique opportunity to apply engineering principles to biological systems related to plants, animals, humans, and their environments.

Biological Engineering merges applied biology with engineering fundamentals to design processes and systems that impact, control, or utilize biological materials and organisms for the betterment of society. A BE undergraduate education serves as excellent preparation for advanced studies in various engineering fields (including biomedical engineering), as well as human or veterinary medicine, and dentistry. The curriculum is structured to equip students with practical engineering skills and the ability to adapt to evolving situations. Graduates are well-equipped to take the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Examination during their senior year, a crucial step towards obtaining a professional engineering license.
