The Bachelor of Science in Packaging Systems and Design from the Department of Sustainable Biomaterials sits at the crossroads of design, science, engineering, and commerce. Students master the creation of packaging that appeals to consumers, safeguards and maintains product integrity, and minimizes ecological footprints. Most packaging courses incorporate practical, industry-backed projects to connect academic learning with practical application. This program stands alone in the United States by embedding sustainability throughout its entire curriculum. In the rapidly growing sustainable packaging sector, our students acquire skills to design curbside-recyclable packaging entirely from natural, eco-friendly resources.
