In the midst of the green transition, the conversion of bio-based resources – such as wood, plants, natural fibres, and organic waste – into materials for varying products has become more crucial than ever. Although bioresources are increasingly used in, for instance, materials engineering, such as packaging, the possibilities for new innovations are endless. A prominent example of such innovation is Ioncell-F technology that transforms used textiles, pulp, and newspapers into new textile fibres without using harmful chemicals.

The world needs visionary experts who can create alternative ways to use bioresources and to develop recyclable alternatives to polluting materials and chemicals, e.g., fossil-based plastics and fuels. We also need to utilise industrial side streams and highly processed materials more efficiently to build a better circular economy.

In the Bioproducts Engineering Master’s Programme, you acquire the skills to develop tomorrow’s sustainable, marketable bioproducts that help our planet combat climate change and reduce waste. Aalto University's diverse and multidisciplinary study environment together with top-notch research centres and dedicated faculty give students an excellent foundation for a successful career in this rapidly evolving field.

In this programme, students have the freedom to create their own individual study path based on their interests and aspirations. They can opt for a cross-disciplinary path that gives them a broad palette of skills. However, if a student wants to specialise in certain industries or topics, they can choose to complete a set of recommended courses. Such topics include, for instance: 

  • Biorefinery
  • Wood material science and engineering 
  • Fibre-based packaging and technology
  • Textiles
