Hands-on work with this world-class mind equals exciting classes.
When you tackle biological systems engineering with pioneering researcher Juming Tang, professor of food engineering and IMPACT Fellow, you learn from a leader. More than that, you become an active participant in Dr. Tang's research while you apply classroom concepts.
"I encourage student-teacher interaction during lectures and use examples based on my research experiences to bridge the gap between theories and practices," he says. "I bring real-world projects solicited from local industry or based on our advanced research to class for students to use as engineering team design projects.
"Dr. Tang's groundbreaking research on advanced thermal processing has resulted in breakthrough discoveries in microwave technology and radio frequency. His efforts have made Washington State University the only university in the world with microwave and radio frequency sterilization equipment, and the means to research all three FCC-approved frequencies for thermal food processing.
