Engineering a Sustainable Future

Creating innovative, data-informed solutions for biological systems - on Earth, and beyond.

 

Education. Research. Outreach.

As the global population surges, we face an urgent need to produce more food using fewer resources. We put science to work to develop and produce innovative, sustainable systems to meet that need - now and in the future. From optimizing growth conditions in controlled environment agriculture, to finding alternative fuel and feed sources, our work has real-world impact. Our students have access to world-class experts in and out of the classroom, as well as hands-on experience in state-of-the-art facilities like the Controlled Environment Agricultural Center (CEAC), the Fabrication Shop and Lab, and the Arizona Experiment Station.
