Faculty of Agricultural Engineering and Technology

The Faculty of Agricultural Engineering and Technology is among the five faculties of Sindh Agriculture University, Tandojam. Initially, it started as the Department of Agricultural Engineering of the defunct Sindh Agriculture College Tandojam in 1955. The department was upgraded into a full-fledged Faculty of Agricultural Engineering and Technology in 1977.

The faculty has played a leading role in providing engineering solutions to agricultural problems and is devoted to meeting the needs of the people of Sindh in particular and Pakistan in general.

Its primary goal is to promote technological changes and their management for sustainable agricultural development through high-level education, research and outreach activities by integrating technology, planning and management.

Academic Focus

The dissemination of quality education, research and training with special emphasis on interdisciplinary interface among technological and educational expertise is the main focus of the faculty.

At present, the faculty offers a four-year B.E. (Agri.) degree program. The program provides a fundamental understanding of natural, basic and engineering sciences and their application to design devices and processes in general areas related to agriculture.

The program covers irrigation systems, soil and water management, farm machinery, farm structures, environment, energy and resource management, GIS, remote sensing, electronics and instrumentation applications related to agriculture.
