The Department of Bioproducts and Biosystems Engineering (BBE) is hosting a seminar for students interested in the production and sales of bioplastics.

Bioplastics and U Seminar
Wednesday, Sept. 25, 2024
4:30-5:30 p.m.
Lind Hall, Room 302
Food provided!

Bioplastics are made from plant materials and are designed to address the issue of petroleum-based plastics by breaking down into compostable plant or soil material. This is in contrast to conventional plastics, which contribute to plastic and microplastic pollution. BBE faculty and alumni will present their work in the field and explain how a degree from BBE can set you up for success. Can't attend in person? You can also join via Zoom by registering.
