It combines engineering principles with agricultural science to improve productivity on Ghanaian farms. This programme sits within the Faculty of Engineering and welcomes students from several SHS backgrounds.
What agricultural mechanization engineering covers
Programmes of this kind typically teach you how to design, maintain, and operate the machines and systems that power modern agriculture. You will learn about tractor engines, tillage equipment, irrigation systems, and the machinery used for planting, harvesting, and processing crops. The field also covers the management of farm power and the way mechanical solutions fit into the wider farm operation, so you build practical skills in troubleshooting, workshop practice, and equipment selection.
How hard it is to get a place
Entry into this programme is less competitive than into many other engineering degrees. The Faculty of Engineering accepts students from General Science, Technical Studies, and Visual Arts backgrounds, which broadens the routes in. If you are interested in machinery and agriculture, this is a programme worth checking against your own results.
