Agricultural engineering is the branch of engineering that applies knowledge of biological science engineering science & technology to agricultural production and processing. Agricultural engineering combines the disciplines of mechanical, civil, electrical, chemical engineering with animal and plant biology. Basically there are four major specializations in agricultural engineering namely, farm machinery & power engineering, irrigation & drainage engineering soil & water Conservation engineering, post harvest process & food engineering. Each has its unique and wide scope for research work. Agricultural engineering has been accepted as one of the major disciplines which contribute significantly in increasing the productivity of agriculture in the country by way of increasing efficiency of inputs, conservation of resources and reducing post harvest losses besides value addition of agro-produce. Farm Machinery & Power Engineering: This specialization includes technology for appropriate mechanization, covered cultivation, reducing drudgery in farm operations, improving quality of farm produce and reducing cost of production, manufacturing technology, quality and standardization, animate and mechanical power sources, bio-fuels, renewable energy, energy application and conservation, energy efficient appliances and equipment, testing and evaluation, machinery management, safety and health hazards and man-machine-power interaction. Irrigation and Drainage Engineering: This specialization deals with technology for water resources development, water lifting, conveyance and utilization, conservation, controlled precision application of water through drip and micro-sprinkler, prevention of accumulation of excess water, flood control, reclamation of water logged soil using surface and sub-surface drainage. Soil & Water Conservation Engineering: This specialization deals with technology for land development, hydrology of natural precipitation, watershed development, accumulation and conservation of water, prevention of soil erosion from water and wind. Post Harvest and Process Engineering: It is also known as Food process engineering at various institutions. This specialization includes technology for post harvest, primary processing and value addition of food, feed, fiber and industrial crops, fermentation technology, controlled atmospheric packaging and low temperature storage. In addition to these, specializations are also offered in Aquacultural Engineering, Dairy and Food Engineering, Post Harvest Engineering, Agricultural Systems Management, ect.

Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan is a well knit organizational set-up which is marching forward with a mission. There are nearly 895 schools divided in 18 regions. Kendriya Vidyalaya No. 2 Kharagpur is one of them. The pretentious three storied building in the south side near the Rly microwave Town is worth seeing. It got started in the year 1986 and is being nurtured as a ‘Model Vidyalaya’ by KVS since the year 2000. The Vidyalaya is run in a three-storied building accommodating about 1823 students up to class XII and about 60 teachers, highly qualified, trained and experienced, guiding students with a mission to excel in life and living. In order to accommodate the growing number of sections and students, on additional two storied building has been constructed on the left ride of the Vidyalaya.

Five score years ago, the Wright Brothers flew the first successful airplane, the Wright Flyer over the hills of Kitty Hawk. Ever since, there has been a tremendous advancement in this field, with those who dare to dream, visit the unknown and reach heights hitherto unreached, vying to outdo each other. They are the Aerospace Engineers and this page is the meeting ground for all the Aerospace Engineers that IIT Kharagpur has groomed over the course of the last half century.

In the year 1952, under the leadership of Professor E. Braner, a group of ten students formed the nucleus of this department. Soon it developed into a full-fledged undergraduate programme also offering post-graduate courses in 1956, for the first time, in the country. The Institute of Town Planners had also its beginning in this department. With time, pioneering attempts were made to start advance training in Building Science, Application of Computer Techniques in Architectural design Simulation, Presentation Graphics and Construction Technology. The consultancy activities of the department range from government and large corporate clients in the country ranging from design of large townships, institutions, landscaped environmental planning to conservation of heritage sites and buildings. Some of the key areas of research include Building Technology and Management, Housing and Community Planning, Heritage Studies and Conservation, Urban Design, Visual and Graphic Design, Computer Applications in Architecture and Planning, GIS and Multimedia Applications, Environmental Design, Transportation Planning and Traffic Engineering, Metropolitan Planning, Infrastructure Planning and Systems Management.
