About the course

Understand bio-based resources. Enable your ability to advance the role of renewable resources in a sustainable society. Wood and other lignocellulosic fibers offer a solution to ending our dependence on fossil fuels and other nonrenewable materials. Bioproducts and the Circular Bioeconomy are critical to resolving our current unsustainable lifestyle. This sector is optimistic for future growth nationally and globally in response to the public?s demand for green and sustainable building materials, packaging, and a host of other product areas.

　　Learn how plant-based materials like wood, bamboo, hemp and flax are used and reused for construction and production of consumer goods. The sustainable bioproducts program at Michigan Tech gives you hands-on experience in applying renewable resource technology to create a thriving and global sustainability movement. You?ll study sustainability and put it to use where you are most passionate. This degree is a combination of science, business, and engineering.
