Packaging is for students interested in:
- Pursuing a degree that combines design, science, and creativity.
- Learning to innovate with a variety of materials and technology and apply conceptual thinking.
- Creating packages that allow products to be delivered safely and stand out in a retail environment.
B.S. Plastics Engineering
Plastics engineering is a fast-moving, high-demand industry that greatly impacts the way we live. You'll learn how to develop sophisticated materials to suit the needs of society. Taught by a team of industry experts, our program covers the latest developments in the field and is supported by a strong network of industry partners.
Plastics engineering is for students interested in:
- Designing and making functional/sustainable/cool plastics products used in medical, automotive, electronics, and consumer markets.
- Understanding and practicing the principles of chemical structures, properties, and processing of materials.
- Becoming a high in-demand professional excelling in today’s rapidly growing plastics industry particularly of the Midwest region.
