Agricultural and Biological Engineering
http://www.abe.psu.edu/PStudents.html

Agricultural and biological engineering is the application of engineering principles to agricultural and biological systems, which greatly influence our food and fiber supply. This degree prepares students for many exciting career opportunities in the diverse areas of production of food and other biological materials, processing systems, and protection of land and water resources. Employment opportunities for agricultural and biological engineers will continue to increase as the world's population demands more abundant supplies of nutritious, high quality food at affordable prices, while decreasing the impact biological and agricultural materials production and processing have on our environment
