Department of Chemical, Biological, and Bioengineering

Stephen B. Knisley, Chairperson

Degrees Offered

Bioengineering - Bachelor of Science
Biological Engineering - Bachelor of Science
Chemical Engineering - Bachelor of Science

Chemical Engineering, Biological Engineering and Bioengineering are core engineering disciplines and are central to the College of Engineering and the University’s mission and its land grant heritage. The breadth of these disciplines affords us many natural links to other academic programs within and outside the College of Engineering. These multidisciplinary links have allowed us to develop strengths in emerging areas of engineering, while maintaining our excellence in more traditional areas. Each of the three Bachelor of Science programs is a four-year engineering program open to new college entrants and transfer students.
