EU/US Curriculum on Renewable Resources and Clean Technology

Through this partnership, students from the University of Graz, the University of Ghent and the National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse are invited to study biorenewables at Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa. Courses will be offered through the Biorenewable Resources and Technology (BRT) Graduate Program.

 

Biorenewable Resources and Technology Graduate Program

Iowa State University recently established the first graduate program in biorenewable resources in the United States. ISU offers M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in biorenewables as well as a minor for students obtaining degrees in other majors. The program offers students from a wide variety of science and engineering backgrounds advanced study in the use of plant- and crop-based resources for the production of biobased products, including fuels, chemicals, materials, and energy.

The program in BRT provides advanced training for students in the areas of plant science, production, processing, and utilization related to biobased products.
