</header>

<p><b>Biological systems engineering</b> or <b>biosystems engineering</b> is a broad-based <a href="Engineering" title="Engineering">engineering</a> discipline with particular emphasis on non-medical <a href="Biology" title="Biology">biology</a>. It can be thought of as a subset of the broader notion of <a href="Biological_engineering" title="Biological engineering">biological engineering</a> or bio-technology though not in the respects that pertain to <a href="Biomedical_engineering" title="Biomedical engineering">biomedical engineering</a> as <i>biosystems</i> engineering tends to focus less on medical applications than on <i>agriculture, ecosystems, and food science</i>. The discipline focuses broadly on environmentally sound and <a href="Sustainable_engineering" title="Sustainable engineering">sustainable engineering</a> solutions to meet societies' ecologically related needs. Biosystems engineering integrates the expertise of fundamental engineering fields with expertise from non-engineering disciplines.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Background_and_organization">Background and organization</h2></div>

<p>Many college and university <a href="Biological_engineering" title="Biological engineering">biological engineering</a> departments have a history of being grounded in <a href="Agricultural_engineering" title="Agricultural engineering">agricultural engineering</a> and have only in the past two decades or so changed their names to reflect the movement towards more diverse biological based engineering programs.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This major is sometimes called agricultural and biological engineering, biological and environmental engineering, etc., in different universities, generally reflecting interests of local employment opportunities.

</p><p>Since biological engineering covers a wide spectrum, many departments now offer specialization options. Depending on the department and the specialization options offered within each program, curricula may overlap with other related fields. There are a number of different titles for BSE-related departments at various universities. The professional societies commonly associated with many Biological Engineering programs include the <a href="American_Society_of_Agricultural_and_Biological_Engineers" title="American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers">American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers</a> (ASABE)<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the <a href="Institute_of_Biological_Engineering" title="Institute of Biological Engineering">Institute of Biological Engineering</a> (IBE),<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> which generally encompasses BSE. Some program also participate in the Biomedical Engineering Society (BMES) <sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE).<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>A biological systems engineer has a background in what both environmental engineers and biologists do, thus bridging the gap between engineering and the (non-medical) biological sciences – although this is variable across academic institutions. For this reason, biological systems engineers are becoming integral parts of many environmental engineering firms, federal agencies, and <a href="Biotechnology" title="Biotechnology">biotechnology</a> industries. A biological systems engineer will often address the solution to a problem from the perspective of employing living systems to enact change. For example, biological treatment methodologies can be applied to provide access to clean drinking water <sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> or for <a href="Carbon_sequestration" title="Carbon sequestration">sequestration of carbon</a> dioxide.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
