Agriculture Engineering is a very wide area that aims to help solve the world’s hunger problems, health problems and improve the quality of life, as well as to increase the quantity of food available to our growing population. Ukraine is the country which is very much into culturing and agriculture to provide good quality food to their people.
Agriculture Engineering is both a theoretical research and a practical application of the agricultural field, such as cereal cultivation. A degree in Agricultural Engineering will research the practice of agriculture in both the microcosm and the larger picture, exploring the ethical and environmental alternatives to feeding an increasing global population. Courses may include modules such as cropping and pasture sciences, and plant nutrition.
In particular, agriculture will concentrate on plant and soil sciences, collaborating with companies to find ways to maximize yields and encourage sustainable agriculture. In the meantime, agricultural economics will combine applied economics with incisive agricultural analysis, examine finance and the effect on industry of financial systems such as tariffs, and explore ways of optimizing the use of natural resources.
Main modules such as public policy, data processing and environmental protection would be combined with electives such as applied econometrics or livestock production science in most undergraduate curriculums.
A BS, or undergraduate degree, would be four-year course in agriculture, but it is possible to take applied study to a doctoral level. Many courses would be closely connected to local businesses, and students will even be able to operate a micro-farm on site.
