Ag Mechanical and Engineering

The Agriculture Mechanical and Engineering Pathway introduces students to the global agricultural industry, combining AFNR system fundamentals with hands-on FFA leadership and Supervised Agricultural Experiences. Students develop essential technical skills in equipment maintenance, electricity, carpentry, plumbing, and structural welding through the engineering design process. The pathway culminates in an advanced capstone course where students apply engineering principles to troubleshoot, repair, and design complex power, pneumatic, and hydraulic systems through an intensive work-based learning experience.
