农业工程（Agricultural Engineering），更准确的称呼应是生物与农业工程（Biological and Agricultural Engineering），是结合动物学、植物学以及机械、土木、化学工程的知识和原理，把工程科学和技术知识应用于农业生产和加工的工程学科。
农业工程主要包含五个专业方向：
- 农业工程机械：主要研究农业机械，属于机械工程的分支；
- 农业生物工程：是生物学在农业上的应用工程，属于生物工程的分支；
- 农业资源管理、保护及利用：包括农业水土资源的保护和利、农业生物环境优化、农村生态环境建设、清洁能源工程等
- 食品工程：是研究食品安全、食品生产及加工的工程科学。
- 农业生产：包括作物生产、畜牧、废物管理（包括动物粪便，农业废弃物和肥料流失）等。
