B. E. AGRICULTURE ENGINEERING

PROGRAMME EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES (PEOs) i) To train and educate students with general knowledge and skills in agricultural water management, agricultural production process, farm machinery and farm management. ii) To provide a sound theoretical knowledge in engineering principles applied to agriculture iii) To prepare students for a successful agricultural engineering career integrating all aspects of engineering in agriculture. iv) To develop innovative capacity of students for increasing agricultural production with scarce water resources available. v) To impart positive and responsive out-reach attitudes, initiative and creative thinking in their mission as engineers. vi) To understand ethical issues and responsibility of serving the society and the environment at large.

PROGRAM OUTCOMES (POs) Graduates of Agriculture Engineering will have

a) Ability to apply the knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering in agriculture b) Ability to design and conduct experiments, analyze and interpret data to prepare farm

specific report c) Ability to design an irrigation system to meet the desired needs within realistic

Constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, and sustainability d) Ability to think creatively, to formulate problem statements, to communicate effectively, to

synthesize information, and to evaluate agricultural systems e) Ability to function in interdisciplinary teams within the Institute and also with other

organizations at National/ International level while planning the research projects. f) Ability to use the techniques, skills and modern engineering tools necessary for Agricultural

engineering practice. g) Will develop competencies in computer and automatic control systems, information

systems, mechanical systems, natural resource systems to solve engineering problems h) Graduates will be able to express themselves clearly in oral and verbal communication

needs. i) Ability to devise a strategy or action plan to utilize the acquired knowledge in increasing

water- use efficiency, farm mechanization and Post harvest technology etc. j) Graduates will be capable of self-education in emerging problems and understand the

value of lifelong learning in Food Technology, Farm Machinery and Food Processing.
