Chemists and engineers design processing equipment and manufacturing facilities or specialize in a particular field such as pollution control, food-process engineering, or pharmaceutical engineering.  They help produce specific products that make our world a better place in which to live.  Food processors, for example, work closely with product managers to develop specialties like fat-free foods, seedless fruit, and the perfect French fry!

What's Unique about this Degree: The VU-Purdue Direct Admission Program guarantees admission for VU students who maintain a 3.0 GPA and earn their Associate Degree in Agricultural & Biological Engineering.  Find out more here.

Good to Know: All of Vincennes University’s pre-engineering programs are designed to transfer to a four-year school.  The focus in all engineering tracts is developing sound problem-solving techniques.  The laboratory is your practice ground as you learn the nature of chemical reactions and translates that to mass transport – reactions occurring on a much larger scale, as in chemical plants.

Who is this degree for: Students who are interested in designing solutions for food creation and manufacturing.
