About the course

Animal science provides a strong foundation in animal nutrition, reproduction, genetics and physiology, preparing students for a variety of animal-centered careers or further studies in veterinary medicine or graduate school. Students choose from a wide array of electives, delving into topics ranging from animal health and management practices to agriculture and food policy.

　　At UNH, you won?t just learn in the classroom about animal science, you?ll have regular opportunities to gain hands-on experience at our many on-campus animal facilities and through our well-establish network of local and regional collaborators. This interactive approach to learning is built into our core and elective curriculum and is augmented by the activities of the student clubs associated with the animal science program. Examples of engaged learning include participating in the Poultry Experiential Education Program (PEEP) or the Cooperative Real Education in Agricultural Management (CREAM) classes and assisting with research projects lead by our faculty and graduate students.
