of responses for each question. Results indicate that ASMTstudents have some similarities with their engineering counterparts, but place a stronger focus onrelationships and building connections. Students valued the use of group projects as a way tobuild community and noted the importance of classroom management to build community.IntroductionAcross the country, many biological and agricultural engineering departments are also home toagricultural systems management/technology (ASMT) programs. From a historical perspective,nearly all these ASMT programs have evolved from traditional agricultural mechanizationprograms. This evolution parallels how biological engineering programs evolved from traditionalagricultural engineering programs. We

EngineeringAbstractBiological and Agricultural Engineering (BAE) programs across the U.S. are aimed at teachingengineering principles and concepts of biology as they apply to both agricultural and biologicalsystems. There is a clear definition of what the undergraduate curricula should instill in studentsprior to entering into the workforce as defined by the Accreditation Board for Engineering andTechnology, Inc. However, individual institutions determine the exact knowledge conceptswithin the coursework offered for students to be successful and prepared for their careers. Thisresearch project was motivated by the need to differentiate between the BAE programknowledge areas and a newly formed Environmental Engineering program in a southwesternUniversity’s Civil
