Description
The Bio-engineering study program is an interdisciplinary science and engineering that can be applied in engineering production systems using biological agents such as plants, microbes, and animals to produce high-value bioproducts using the biorefinery concept. The biorefinery concept includes production systems, technologies, and processes that can optimize raw materials, minimize waste and maximize profits for sustainable bio-industrial development. The biorefinery concept includes production systems, technologies, and strategies to optimize raw materials, reduce waste and maximize profits for sustainable bio-industrial development.

Research Topic
Bioengineering is an interdisciplinary of:
  1. Basic engineering knowledge
  2. Basic knowledge of life science
  3. Application of engineering principles in plant-based production system engineering

Excellence 
The Bioengineering Study Program has been accredited nationally by BAN-PT and internationally by IABEE. Students of the Bioengineering Study Program have achieved achievements in various national and international competency events. For example:
