Bachelor of Science in Biosystems Engineering

University of Manitoba

Biosystems engineers help to create new technologies to improve the well-being of humans and animals, and to preserve and enhance natural resources and the environment. Our program objective is to graduate design-ready engineers prepared for professional practice by providing students with a broad foundation in the application of engineering principles to biological systems.Biosystems engineering emphasizes the application of engineering principles to biologically-based systems (plants, animals, humans and microorganisms). The program is designed to give students knowledge of the fundamental principles of engineering and to introduce biological concepts to enable these engineers to successfully interact with relevant professionals when solving engineering problems involving biological systems.The program is offered in both a traditional and a co-operative education format. The department offers three specializations (Biomedical, Bioresource and Environmental) and one minor (Agribusiness). A bachelors degree in Biosystems Engineering meets the requirements for admission to the Max Rady College of Medicine.
