The purpose of sustainable engineering is to design infrastructure that equitable serves a population and efficiently uses resources. Sustainable engineering is not necessarily concerned with environmental issues, but can be concerned with issues like transportation and energy.
Biological Engineering. Biological Engineering is an interdisciplinary area focusing on the application of engineering principles to analyze biological systems and to solve problems in the interfacing of such systems -- plant, animal or microbial--with human-designed machines, structures, processes and instrumentation. basic goal is to design technology that operates in harmony with the biology of living systems. In many cases, currently available knowledge is inadequate to support engineering design of food and biological processes.
