Agricultural Engineering is a discipline which is strongly oriented to the practical needs of all involved in agriculture. Students need to understand the practical application of theories and develop skills in the identification and solution of problems. This course presents a coordinated set of activities which relate to other Agricultural Engineering courses and will reinforce and develop an understanding of their content and their application to real world situations.

This course contains a mandatory residential school.
