Agricultural Systems Management

The Agricultural Systems Management program emphasizes engineering technology and the management of physical and biological systems for agricultural production, handling and processing of agricultural commodities, and maintaining environmental quality. Agricultural Systems Management is the application of biological, physical, mechanical, and business knowledge to support and manage agricultural production systems, product processing systems, and related industries.

 

ASM graduates manage people, money, and machines. They excel at management, marketing, and customer service by applying their knowledge of agri-production and agri-processing technology, business management, communications and computer skills. Positions filled by ASM graduates are those that bridge the gap between engineers and the users of engineered systems. The program is designed for students whose interests lie in the application, operation, and management of the equipment (power & machinery), natural resources (soil & water), or commodity handling and processing elements of the agricultural industry. You will have the skills necessary to manage people, money, technology, environmental resources and machines efficiently and competitively in a private or public environment.
