Hands-on project applies what engineering students have learned in class
A group of engineering students at Kennesaw State University are applying what they have learned in class to a hands-on project: building a chicken coop for KSU’s Hickory Grove Farm.
The farm, which is located near the university’s Kennesaw campus, is a 26-acre property that grows plants, including tomatoes and spinach, which are then sent to KSU’s dining hall, The Commons, to be served on campus. The farm also houses chickens, which are used for eggs, to the university.
