Mold board plow

A team of three horses are drawing a mold board plow through a field creating furrows. The plow is moving away from the camera, but the driver has turned in the seat to face the camera. Two other teams and plows are in the background.

The teaching of agricultural engineering at Iowa State University began in 1903 and was overseen by the Department of Agronomy from 1905 to 1907. The Department of Agricultural Engineering was formally established in 1907. It was renamed the Department of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering in 1990. In 2004, the Department merged with the Department of Industrial Education and Technology. It is jointly administered by the College of Engineering and College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.
