Precision Agriculture Technology - Institutional Certificate of Proficiency

The Precision Agriculture Technology Post-Bachelor’s Certificate is designed to prepare undergraduate students wishing to enhance their portfolios to understand and implement precision agriculture technology. Precision agriculture is a multi-faceted science that involves several different disciplines – including plant, soil, and climate sciences, several facets of engineering (electrical, agriculture, biological, irrigation, etc.), agricultural technologies and systems, applied economics, statistics, mathematics, and geographic information systems. This certificate incorporates these disciplines with courses from four departments (PSC, CEE, APEC, and ASTE). This certificate may be earned as a stand-alone certification or as part of a participating department’s undergraduate program.

Students who complete the program will receive a post-bachelor’s certificate in Precision Agriculture Technology. They will learn and become proficient in the latest techniques, tools, and technologies for precision agriculture, including site-specific management of crop inputs. Their USU transcript will list the courses and grades received to complete the certificate.

There are no specific admission requirements. Any enrolled student who completes the requirements will be awarded the certificate. Please reach out to the program coordinators if you have questions about eligibility or requirements.
