Career and Technological Programs
The Division of Agriculture and
AGRICULTURAL ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY
The Agricultural Engineering
Technology Program is designed to educate a student in the repair, service,
operation, and marketing of equipment used in agricultural production,
industrial applications, and turfgrass management.
This program of study is intended to provide young men and women with the
education needed for entry-level positions in both the agricultural and
industrial equipment areas. A student will also have received sufficient
courses in the general education area to allow for rising to middle management
level positions. Typical employment opportunities include parts manager,
service manager, or service representative. Upon completion of the program of
study, the student is eligible for the Associate of Applied Science degree in
Agricultural Engineering Technology.
A grade of less than C
indicates a level of knowledge that is unacceptable in a professional field. A
student is required to earn a C or better in all AENG/AENT courses.
