Head of Department: Terry Howell, Jr.

Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering (BAE) at the University of Arkansas was established in 1920 and accredited since 1958. The first Ph.D. was conferred in 1984, and in 1988, the department was renamed to reflect its broadened focus. Further changes included renaming the degrees to Biological Engineering in 2002 and introducing a Master’s in Biomedical Engineering in 2003.

The interdisciplinary research addresses water systems, food safety, and energy efficiency, aiming to improve quality of life and environmental stewardship locally and globally.
