Bachelor of Science in Sustainable Bioproducts with Concentration in Science

Program Overview

The Sustainable Bioproducts major prepares students with a strong foundation in the manufacturing of wood and fiber-based products, their physical and mechanical properties, environmental implications, marketing, sales, and trading of wood and composite materials composed of agricultural residues and other natural fibers. Besides structural materials, specialty chemicals such as polymers and adhesives from natural resources, and bioenergy such as bio-oils, alcohols, and pelletized fuels are increasingly important to sustainable industrial production.

Science

Are you planning to to pursue a scientific research field, work for a wood products industry in research and development, or intend to pursue a graduate degree in wood and biomaterials science? Customize the program to fit your learning and career goals. You may choose to focus your elective classes on the testing of physical and mechanical properties of wood, the chemical protection of wood from biotic and abiotic stresses, environmental impacts and issues associated with treatment and disposal of wood and non-wood products, or development of engineered wood products including pelletized fuels, mass timber products, construction elements, engineered wood panels, and other wood and non-wood bioproducts. Across all areas of study, you will receive training in sustainability, current industry practices, and the opportunity to interact with industry professionals.

PGWP

Optional Practical Training or OPT is a period during which students, who have completed their degrees in the USA, are permitted to work for one year on a student visa by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). OPT allows students to work for up to 3 years and develop real-world skills to survive in the competitive jobs market.

It is temporary employment for a period of 12-months that is directly related to the major area of study of an F-1 student. Eligible students have the option to apply for OPT employment authorization before completing their academic studies and/or after completing their academic studies.

A student can participate in three types of Optional Practical Training (OPT):

Pre-Completion OPT: This is temporary employment provided to F-1 students before completion of their course of study.
Post-Completion OPT: This is temporary employment available to F-1 students after completing their course of study.
24 Month STEM Extension: Students enrolled in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) courses can a 24-month extension after their initial Post-Completion OPT authorization.
