1 School of Chemical, Biological, and Environmental Engineering (CBEE)
Science-based Engineering at OSU Dr. Skip Rochefort, Associate Professor

2 Engineering View -- MIT Report
CBEE - Chemical, Biological, Environmental Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering are the most exciting and multi-faceted career paths of our time. Because CBEE interfaces with biology, chemistry, and materials science, they are widely regarded as the central engineering disciplines of the future. The opportunities are limitless.” … for CBEE at OSU

6 Biological - Agricultural
BIOENGINEERING The difficulty is that BIOENGINEERING means different things to different people – depending on it’s origins Biomedical Tissue & Biomaterials – ChE/Science/Medicine Devices – ChE/ECE Imaging Technology – ECE Prosthetics – ME/Kineseology Biochemical/Biomolecular/Bioprocess Bioefuels and Pharmaceuticals Biological - Agricultural

7 Average Starting Salaries in 2015 (estimates)
Great Salaries! Average Starting Salaries in 2015 (estimates) Nuclear Engineering $68,000 Chemical Engineering $66,000 Computer Engineering $65,000 Electrical Engineering $63,000 Biomedical Engineering $63,000 Mechanical Engineering $61,000 Industrial Engineering $58,000 Construction Engr. Mangmt. $55,000 Civil Engineering $55,000 Chemistry $40,000 Biology $32,000 8 out of the top 10 salaries for 2005 graduates were in fields of engineering. These are the average starting salaries for engineers with a Bachelors Degree.

8 1953: The structure of the DNA molecule is first described
BIOENGINEERING Linus Pauling BS – CHE Oregon State 1922 1953: The structure of the DNA molecule is first described

9 Bioengineering IS… A branch of engineering that focuses on the application of biological and chemical processes A broad profession that allows people to work in the medical, pharmaceutical and bio-production fields. A path to opportunities to help society by: Developing new medical products and technologies Advance the biological production of new products and materials

10 What Do Undergrads Do? Learn how to grow seaweed to decompose submerged weapons (TNT) Study how to use gel beads to design an artificial pancreas to treat diabetes Study human response to extended periods in the low gravity environment of space Learn how to design new kidney dialysis machines based on a microreactor

11 Where Do BioE’s Work? Pharmaceutical Industry Hospitals
Food Production Biofuels Biomedical Consumer Products Research

12 Our Students Also Excel in …
Graduate Schools : OSU or Law School: Patents, Environmental Law, etc. Medical School These are some of the jobs that chemical engineers have pursued after advanced educational program. Having a chemical engineering degree has helped them to be better problem solvers, understand new material quickly and see how fundamental principles and be applied to a wide variety of applications.
