Master of Master of Bioproduct Manufacturing Engineering
Monash University
Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Postgraduate
CRICOS: 00008C
Bioproduct manufacturing is an emerging but fast-growing industry. It looks at innovatively converting natural renewable biological resources, such as wood and crop waste, into a wide range of value-added chemicals, materials and energy. With the increasing challenges of resource scarcity and environmental pollution, there is a strong global demand for bioproduct engineers who can design sustainable and environmentally-friendly solutions for new materials and energy-efficient sources. This course integrates core engineering principles with specialist topics in the field of bioresource processing. Students will gain enhanced technical and research skills and also develop entrepreneurial acumen sought by a broad range of industries, especially bio-based industries, both locally and internationally. The course will suit engineers already working in bio-based industries and also new graduates with related qualifications who want to play a vital role in the transformative technologies for the future in the sustainable global bio-economy.
