BioResource & Agricultural Engineering Department
Cal Poly San Luis Obispo's BioResource
and Agricultural Engineering major (BRAE) offers
answers for students who want to be problem solvers.
Today's high-tech agricultural industries are
looking for graduates who can engineer solutions to
the problems of resources and systems as well as for
those who can manage advanced technologies.
The BRAE program, accredited by
the Accreditation Board for Engineering and
Technology, offers hands-on experience in a wide
range of engineering skills areas.
Concentrations include mechanical design,
structures, electronic and control systems,
irrigation, agricultural safety, renewable energy
and waste treatment, and resource information
systems.
With
the Agricultural Systems Management major, students
combine hands-on experience in agricultural
technology with practical training in the business
and management aspects of agriculture within a
curriculum that is recognized by the American
Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineering.
In addition to the hands-on courses in the
department, students may take enough business and
management classes to earn a minor in Agribusiness.
