COURSE DESCRIPTION


B.Tech. Agricultural Engineering or Bachelor of Technology in Agriculture Engineering is an undergraduate Agricultural Engineering course. Agricultural Engineering involves the study of agricultural engineering. It is the discipline that applies engineering science and technology to agricultural production and processing. The study of agricultural engineering combines the disciplines of animal biology, plant biology, and mechanical, civil, electrical and chemical engineering principles with knowledge of agricultural principles. The duration of Bachelor of Technology in Agricultural Engineering course is four years and comprises eight semesters. The course is also offered as B.E. Agricultural Engineering which is one and the same thing as B.Tech. Agricultural Engineering. The only difference lies in their terminologies. However, some institutes may offer it as B.Tech. or B.E.  


B.Tech. Agricultural Engineering Eligibility

  • Pass in 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics Higher
  • The admission is provided based on an entrance test conducted by the respective institutes.

B.Tech. Agricultural Engineering Course Suitability

  • Students who are good and interested in Bachelor of Technology in Agricultural Engineering degree are most suitable for this course.
  • Second, students who are thinking of doing Masters’ Degree after it also suitable for this.
  • They should have an organizational skill and the ability to manage projects. Project work and assignments also teach you about working in teams.
  • Other desired attributes are logical thinking, ability to deal with people diplomatically, and patience, ability to keep calm under pressure and in inevitable crises, creativity, and flexibility to understand and apply new technologies.

How is B.Tech. Agricultural Engineering Course Beneficial?

  • After having this degree course, the students can go for various educational, industrial, agricultural, governmental and its related jobs.
  • Students can go for higher degree programs in respective subjects.
  • Self-employment is also a bright area for them after it.
  • Agricultural engineers can provide consultancy services to agricultural workers and farming and agro industries.
