CAD for Agriculture
AET 015 introduces students to computer aided drafting for agriculture engineering
applications. Using industry standard Autodesk software, students will learn to create
professional 2-D and 3-D technical drawings for agricultural engineering, design,
and construction projects. Through hands-on labs, students master essential skills
including drawing setup, dimensioning, layering, and 3-D modeling.

Ag-Irrigation Management
AET 021 is designed to teach the principles of irrigation system management for dealers,
regulators and farmers (or those interested in those areas). Topics such as surface
irrigation methods (furrow and border strip) and pressurized systems (micro and sprinklers)
are covered. Students will learn when and how much to irrigate; includes sections
on evapotranspiration and crop coefficients, practical irrigation scheduling techniques,
how irrigation efficiency and uniformity influence irrigation scheduling, and salinity
effects. This course aligns with the Irrigation Association's Certified Irrigation
Specialist Program. (CAIS).
