BSc Agricultural Engineering – UET Peshawar

BSc Agricultural Engineering at the University of Engineering and Technology, Peshawar is a four-year PEC-accredited programme at the main campus, listed in the 2026-27 undergraduate prospectus and in the 2026-27 admission advertisement. The department belongs to the Faculty of Civil, Agricultural and Mining Engineering.

Program Overview

Agricultural Engineering applies engineering to farming and rural infrastructure: irrigation and drainage engineering, soil and water conservation, farm machinery and power, post-harvest and food process engineering, agricultural structures, hydrology, groundwater engineering, renewable energy on farms and precision agriculture. Laboratory and field work on irrigation systems and machinery are integral.

The degree suits students interested in both engineering and agriculture and in solving water and mechanisation problems in Pakistan’s rural economy. It is less crowded than civil or electrical engineering, which can help at admission time.

Eligibility Criteria

Candidates need FSc pre-engineering (or an equivalent qualification such as a relevant DAE) with a minimum of 60 percent unadjusted marks and must have taken the ETEA entrance test for the 2026-27 cycle. Students who studied Computer Science in place of Chemistry may attempt the computer science portion of the test but are eligible only for the computer engineering group of programmes. Open-merit seats are for candidates domiciled in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and erstwhile FATA, with separate quotas and self-finance seats described in the prospectus.

Career Scope in Pakistan

Agricultural engineers are employed by provincial on-farm water management and irrigation departments, agricultural research institutes, PARC, tube-well and farm machinery companies, drip and sprinkler irrigation suppliers, food-processing plants, NGOs and international projects on water and climate adaptation, and the agricultural development banks. Postgraduate study in water-resources or food engineering is a common extension.
