On Friday September 15, 2006, the Advisory Council for the Biosystems Engineering program met for the first time. The Council consists of nine people - three alumni, three members very familiar with the discipline and its teaching, and three representatives from industries that hire our graduates.
All in attendance believe that the meeting was a success. Many good ideas were put forth, and the BsE faculty are looking forward to working with the Council in the future.
