Agriculture Engineering

Brief Introduction

Agricultural engineering is the engineering discipline that applies engineering science and technology to agricultural production and processing. The discipline of Agricultural Engineering in China Agricultural University is the only State key discipline of Agricultural Engineering in China. The discipline of Agricultural Engineering in China Agricultural University continuously ranks the first in the discipline assessment by Chinese Ministry of Education.

The current program consists of three directions, including Agricultural Equipment Engineering, Agricultural Mechanization Engineering, and Biomass Engineering. The program was designed based on the advantages of College of Engineering of China Agricultural University. This program aims to cultivate master’s degree students with global minds. All the courses of the program will be taught by the strongest faculty team.

Practical capability cultivation has been enhanced in this program according to the demands and characteristics of students from outside China. Out-campus stations will be used so that the capabilities in agricultural production technology and administration of service in rural areas.
