MN.BS. - Biotechnology Systems

The Biotechnology Systems (BS) Career Pathway encompasses the study of using data and scientific techniques to solve problems concerning living organisms with an emphasis on applications to agriculture, food, and natural resource (AFNR) systems. Students completing a program of study in this pathway will demonstrate competence in the application of principles and techniques for the development, application, and management of biotechnology in the context of AFNR.

Energy And Natural Resources

ENR.

The Energy & Natural Resources Career Cluster spans careers in traditional and renewable fuel production, power generation and
energy conversion, utilities, environmental preservation, ecological research, and resource extraction. These industries focus on efficient
and responsible resource management, including conservation, transmission, distribution and storage, to minimize environmental impacts
and meet global energy needs. Careers in this Cluster are dedicated to creating a sustainable future, innovating cleaner energy solutions,
and preserving our planet’s natural resources for generations to come.

How to use

This tool is to support educators in finding simple ways to engage AFNR students in ENR learning without heavy lift or big shifts to their lessons and teaching.
