[00:00:02.700]I want a career I love.
[00:00:05.510]I care about the environment.
[00:00:07.400]I want to transform the world.
[00:00:09.430]And make life better.
[00:00:10.660]Sounds like you want a career
[00:00:12.070]in the food and bioprocess engineering industry.
[00:00:15.420]Bioprocess engineers design the process
[00:00:17.940]for making things like vaccines and antibiotics.
[00:00:21.420]They design green chemicals and fuels
[00:00:23.530]that reduce greenhouse gasses
[00:00:25.340]and make sure we have energy for the future.
[00:00:28.280]Food and bioprocess engineers ensure the food supply
[00:00:31.480]is safe, nutritious, and affordable.
[00:00:34.350]Jobs in the field far outnumber graduates,
[00:00:37.090]and starting salaries are high.
[00:00:39.285](bell dinging)
[00:00:40.490]That sounds great.
[00:00:41.980]Tell me more.
[00:00:46.540]When I was an undergraduate student
[00:00:48.070]I was able to do research,
[00:00:49.510]so it really opened up the doors for me.
[00:00:51.290]I was able to get my foot into the lab,
[00:00:53.610]able to start research
[00:00:55.520]and start to learn how things work in a lab.
[00:01:00.520]I interned with Cargill, so it was great
[00:01:03.480]to actually have an internship where I got to apply
[00:01:06.650]everything that I was learning in the classroom.
[00:01:10.740]I can either stay in academia or I could go
[00:01:13.110]out to industry and I could work
[00:01:14.970]with research and development
[00:01:16.430]or in like a government lab doing research.
[00:01:19.390]For students, if they want a job immediately
[00:01:22.890]after graduating with an undergraduate degree,
[00:01:26.360]this is a great option.
[00:01:28.070]I've accepted a position with Cargill
[00:01:29.760]to be a production management supervisor.
[00:01:31.980]I get to be out and meet people and do new things
[00:01:34.930]and not every day is the same.
[00:01:38.140]My adviser was really a key player
[00:01:40.750]in my development as a biosystems engineer.
[00:01:44.570]He was a good mentor along the way.
[00:01:46.790]We always kind of joke that we're a little family
[00:01:48.780]including our professors and faculty and staff.
[00:01:53.250]I've always wanted to help people.
[00:01:55.020]It's just kind of who I am,
[00:01:56.990]and engineering really is fundamentally
[00:02:00.140]helping others and improving their daily lives.
