Below are popular press articles written about Biological and Agricultural Engineering's research work, extension projects, and its people. The popular press consists of local newspapers articles, magazines, trade magazines, and NCSU magazine publications. Articles in scholarly journals (also known as academic, peer-reviewed, or refereed journals) are different from articles in popular news due to author qualifications, difficulty of content and language, intended audience, sources cited, layout, and organization.

Tip: Did you know you can search all types of newspapers for archived articles through the NCSU Library Press Display. Newspapers can also be searched at: http://nl.newsbank.com/
