  1. Biological EngineeringField Report By Josh Lamson POE - 3C - Matia February 15th 2007

  2. What is it? • Biological Engineering is the application of biology to engineering • Biological Engineers are much different than Biologists. • Biological Engineers study biology then add in the engineering, and make a product

  3. What do they do? • Biological Engineer’s are usually found in industries based on: • food and bioprocessing • plant and animal development • Environmental sustainability • Pharmaceutical production • Biomedical materials processing.

  4. That means…? • More specifically, Biological Engineers could design equipment to • produce pharmaceuticals • pet food or human foods • control tissue growth for new biological products; • develop biological sensors to minimize stress or enhance productivity; • control the environments in greenhouses and animal facilities; • resolve waste management, water quality, and other environmental concerns; • develop biodegradable products.

  5. Branches • The two Branches of biological engineering are • Biomedical Engineering • Bioenvironmental Engineering.

  6. Biomedical Engineering • Biomedical Engineer’s use Biological Engineering to improve the heath and medical world • Biomedical Engineers can do any task including • designing instruments, devices, software, and other technology • to talk with other sort of specialists like doctors, to make Medical Improvements • or to research any area of a dieses to help cure it

  7. Bioenvironmental Engineering • This Branch is mostly used in the US Air Force • Bioenvironmental Engineers apply their knowledge of Engineering to deduct risk of health problems for the protection of people. • This involves • performing risk assessments evaluating • chemical, physical and biological stress factors which may • cause illness, injury, reduced productivity or performance • or significant discomfort among Air Force personnel

  8. Pay Check • Biological Engineers with only a get paid • With a bachelors degree • on average $ 45,324 a year • With a graduate degree • some Biological Engineers get paid up to $100000 a year.

  9. College • The college used in my paper is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) • Some other Colleges with Biological Engineering programs are • University of Colorado (Boulder) • Virginia Tech • University of Maryland

  10. Jobs • Bioenvironmental Engineers are fairly uncommon with only 300 in the USAF. • Some jobs Biomedical Engineers I found were at • Johns Hopkins University/Applied Physics Labs • Aerotek Scientific labs

  11. THANK YOU • Thanks for watching • NOW GO ENGINEER STUFF!
