UIUC’s ABE BS unites mechanical, environmental, and life-science principles to modernize global agriculture and bio-manufacturing. Students automate vertical farms with IoT sensors, design anaerobic digesters that turn waste into energy, and model watershed hydrology to curb nutrient runoff. Collaboration with the Integrated Bioprocessing Research Lab (IBRL) and the Illinois Nutrient Loss Reduction Strategy places majors at the forefront of climate-smart agriculture and circular bio-economies.
