Welcome! Bienvenue!
The Bioresource Engineering (BREE) interdisciplinary program integrates engineering science and design with biological sciences. Bioresource Engineering includes the design, construction, operation, maintenance, remediation and upgrading of systems that contain biological components.
Bioresource Engineering at McGill University is an accredited program recognized by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board and is accepted in every province of Canada, as well as by professional engineering societies in the United States of America and most other countries around the world.
The Bioresource Engineering Department is internationally recognized and renowned for its rigorous academic programs, outstanding faculty and commitment to research. The Department offers both an Undergraduate Program (B.Eng) and Graduate Programs (MSc., PhD.) degrees in various areas of biosystem and bioresource engineering including:
- Ecological Engineering (ecosystem modeling, design, management, and remediation)
- Water Resources Management (hydrology, irrigation, drainage, water quality)
- Mechatronics and Robotics
- Food Engineering and Processing
- Post Harvest Technology
- Plant and Animal Environments
- Waste Management and the protection of the environment
- Artificial Intelligence
- Agricultural Machinery
Bioresource Engineering is a part of the Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. In addition the department collaborates and is affiliated with the Faculty of Engineering for both courses and research purposes.
