Inspiring Innovation An Innovative System for Bioremediation of Agricultural Chemicals for Environmental Sustainability lie in its production and usage that prevent it from becoming more widely used. This exhibit will discuss these issues. Location: Near the west entrance of DCL on the first floor This exhibit is suitable for: hs, adult Individual A team of 12 students are currently competing in the nationally recognized EPA-P3 research competition. This exhibit discusses the research, which explores the amazing potential of natural materials to eliminate toxic chemicals from agricultural runoff. Location: 1st floor hallway between west entrance and 1070 This exhibit is suitable for: hs, adult Great Innovations from the Past and Present Air conditioning, integrated circuits, skyscrapers, the LED, flat panel televisions -- these and many other innovations were made possible by technology developed at the College of Engineering. Explore this timeline to learn more about some of these innovations and achievements of our faculty and alumni. Bioengineering Department Tours BMES Come visit the new Bioengineering department of U of I. We will be showcasing out new facilities as well as demonstrating work done by students in the lab. Location: Room 3110 This exhibit is suitable for: All Biodiesel Individual Biodiesel is an intriguing replacement to petroleum diesel fuel. Many challenges exist in the production and use of this new fuel. This exhibit will cover these challenges and what is being done about them. Location: 1st floor hallway between west entrance and 1070 This exhibit is suitable for: hs, adult Career Opportunities in Agricultural and Biological Engineering Biodiesel Production and Uses Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering Biodiesel has recently become a popular alternative to regular petroleum diesel fuel. However several issues still Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering Learn how Agricultural and Biological Engineers solve engineering problems related to living organisms and systems. Career opportunities are available in areas related to bioprocessing, renewable energy, water and air quality, natural resources, food production systems, biological systems and other areas that utilize biology as part of the engineering solution. Employment is available in industry, government and academics. Location: 1st floor hallway between west entrance and 1070 This exhibit is suitable for: All 1870 Stillman Robinson, the University of Illinois’ first professor, and later, Dean of Engineering, institutes the nation’s first engineering curriculum to include both science-based lectures and experimental laboratory practice.
