Vision

To be regionally and internationally recognized centre for sustainable innovation and excellence in Agriculture Systems and Biosystems Engineering and Technology.

Mission

To empower students with the knowledge and skills in Biosystems Engineering and Technology and the development of sustainable and resilient agricultural systems.

The objectives of the faculty are to:

1. Equip graduates with 21st-century skills.
2. Develop cutting-edge research programs.
3. Promote interdisciplinary learning.
4. Foster industry collaborations.
5. Contribute to sustainable agricultural development.

Biosystems Engineering and Technology emphasizes the application of engineering principles to plants, animals and humans. The faculty houses two (2) operational academic units, with more departments to be launched. The faculty currently is offering the following undergraduate and postgraduate programmes:

1. BSc Honours in Agricultural Engineering.
2. BSc Honours in Irrigation Engineering.
3. MSc Mechanisation Systems Analysis and Management.
4. Diploma in Irrigation Engineering.

These programmes equip graduates with the engineering skills and knowledge necessary to address challenges in areas such as farm power and machinery, water resource management, mechanisation and agricultural automation.
