Can anyone recomend a school for agricultural engineering?

I am at the University of Texas right now but I would like to focus more of my studies on agroecology. UT really does not have a program so I want to transfer. I've seen some schools with BioAgricultural Science degrees and U of Illinois has an Agricultural Engineering progam but I have no idea if the school is good. I would like to stay in engineering since it is a more applied field than science. I'm really interested in sustainable agricultural and would like to put it into practice more than research. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jim

    The school is "good". University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and is considered by many to be the top school of agriculture-related sciences in the world.

    The undergraduate Agricultural Engineering program at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is ranked 1st and the undergraduate engineering program is ranked 5th in the 2008 America's Best Colleges edition of U.S. News and World Report (published in August 2007). The graduate engineering program at Illinois is ranked 5th in the Best Graduate Schools issue of U.S. News and World Report (published in March 2007). (College of Engineering) (ACES News)

    So. with that said I think that's good enough and it rest my case.

    i'm an electric engineer, and that i were around many Civil and Architectural. while it comprises math avert electric or pc, as an electric or pc you're taking a minimum of three extra credit hours in math. while it comprises math, maximum universities, prefer you to take, Calc a million, 2, 3 and a self-discipline talked approximately as Differential Equations. Out of all of those, calculus 2 is the toughest. you will ought to take stat, it extremely is a shaggy dogs tale, and some of the technologies categories you will take will probable be based heavily upon calculus. while it comprises once you prefer to be a Civil or Architectural, from what I incredibly have obvious it relies upon on what you come across irresistible to do. maximum architectural engineers I understand, spend 5 years in company, and then 4 extra as an intern. They spend maximum to if now not all of their lives in a studio doing not something extra suitable than only development their designs into scale replicas. As a Civil then back, you information on bridges, and homes manufactured from concrete.
