Bio systems Engineering is the more biology-based evolution of Agricultural Engineering and applies to all living organism systems with the exception of human ones. It integrates engineering science and design with applied biological, environmental and agricultural sciences and can be defined as “the branch of engineering that prepares students to apply engineering to solve problems in biological systems”. In the context of this evolution, Biosystems Engineering should exclude Biomedical Engineering, and Biotechnology In short, whereas Agricultural Engineering applies Engineering sciences to agricultural applications, Biosystems Engineering, extends this application of Engineering Sciences to all living organisms' applications, including agriculture and. expanding new areas of biomaterials, bio-fuels, bio-mechatronics, aquaculture engineering and precision agriculture.
Aquaculture engineering is engineering of the facilities, equipment, processes, and systems needed to grow and harvest aquatic animals and plants for commercial purposes. Aquaculture is a fast-growing industry trying to meet increasing worldwide demand for fish, shellfish, seaweeds, and other aquatic species.
This evolution process started twenty years ago in USA Universities followed by European and other developed countries |
