As an agricultural engineer, you apply your knowledge of the biological, physical, engineering, and technical sciences to solve problems for the world’s largest industry – the agriculture and food system all while sustaining our natural resources. The Agricultural Engineering program offers three focused degree options to align your passions for a career of impact: Animal Production Systems Engineering: Design the next generation of livestock, poultry, and indoor plant production facilities with a systems-based approach integrating structural analysis, environmental control, manure/nutrient and energy optimization, and animal welfare. Areas of study also focus on precision livestock farming (PLF) and controlled environment agriculture (CEA) systems and technologies. Land and Water Resources Engineering: Design, analyze, and implement sustainable solutions to enhance crop production while mitigating environmental impacts. Areas of study involve remote sensing, advanced modeling, and watershed-based approaches to manage water resources, improve water quality, and protect natural resources. Vehicle Systems Engineering: Hands on design and application of technology in power and vehicle systems. Areas of study include mechanical systems, power transmission, controls and automation, and soil-crop-machine interactions. Goal: To educate students in the analysis and design of machinery, animal housing, and environmental systems for the production, processing, storage, handling, distribution, and use of food, feed, fiber and other biomaterials, and the management of related natural resources, by integrating basic physical and biological sciences with engineering design principles.
