Program overview
In simple terms, this program teaches you how to use modern technologies like computers, sensors, and robots to farm, raise fish, and manage orchards. Core courses include Agricultural Sensors and IoT, Precision Agriculture Technology, Agricultural Big Data Analytics, Agricultural Robotics, and GIS and Remote Sensing Applications. You'll also learn to design smart greenhouses and develop drone-based plant protection solutions. Chinese universities have unique strengths here—for example, China Agricultural University has a national-level smart agriculture experimental station, and Zhejiang University is at the forefront of agricultural robotics. This program is ideal for students who don't mind getting their hands dirty with hardware and software, and who want to use technology to make farmers' lives easier.
