Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering is an applied course that prepares students for further study or careers in engineering, environmental science, agricultural design and research, and agricultural mechanics. Special emphasis is given to the many applications of geographic information systems (GIS) and global positioning systems (GPS) to achieve various agricultural goals.
Gather and analyze authoritative information about employment trends in agricultural engineeringCreate an evidence-based explanation of ways engineering applications of physics are used to solve issues associated witApply the scientific method in deriving engineering solutions for current agriculture issuesConstruct an explanation describing the interactions of the major biological principles used within agricultureInvestigate, analyze, and design an engineering solution to common biological issues affecting production agriculture. aDesign a project plan for an agricultural engineering projectIdentify various Geographic Information System and Global Positioning System applicationsUse data from geographic information systems to make recommendations for use, management, developmentAnalyze, map, and disseminate data from geographic information systems (GIS)Describe the relationships between concepts of hydrostatics, kinematicsResearch agricultural buildings and facilities that meet industry benchmarks for energy efficiencyCreate a detailed construction plan for an agricultural facility suitable for a designated siteAnalyze the physical properties of selected agricultural cropsDevelop safety, storage, and disposal plans for agricultural chemicalsAnalyze the chemical and physical properties of selected agricultural fertilizers and chemicalsParticipate in a team-driven agricultural engineering project approved by the instructor, including research, planning
