Career in Agricultural Engineering:A Prologue

The future of agriculture depends on the next generation of problem solvers. Creative and skilled individuals, like we, can use their knowledge of agriculture and life sciences, along with the problem solving skills of engineering, to create new systems and solutions for the 21^st century. Agriculture is changing faster than any time in history. That's why, if we are interested in helping direct the future of agriculture, a degree in agricultural engineering is what we need. In this paper, agricultural engineers are people who like hands-on problem solving and design implementation. They like to work in teams to solve societal problems related to agriculture. Agricultural engineers solve problems related to agricultural equipment, water quality and water management, biological products, livestock facilities, food processing and many other agricultural areas.
