About the course

The Animal Science bachelor's degree program introduces students to all aspects of animal-focused industries and services. Students are prepared for careers in veterinary healthcare, laboratory animal care and research, animal health and wellness, and food and fiber production. Students apply anatomy, physiology, biology, chemistry, nutrition, reproduction and genetics to the study of animal management, breeding and genetics, growth, behavior, and welfare. The curriculum covers a great variety of species, from livestock to companion animals to pets and animals in research. The animal science major provides excellent preparation for students who wish to find positions immediately upon graduation, as well as those who plan to enter graduate or veterinary schools to obtain advanced degrees. Students have the opportunity to complete a general course of study or focus their education on pre-veterinary studies or equine science specialization. Students gain hands-on experience with many animal species in a broad array of animal science-focused skills including handling and health maintenance, facilities management, equipment usage, nutrition, breeding and wellness. All students participate in the internship program, which allows them to work in an animal science-focused industry at approved establishments. Core and elective courses in the College of Arts & Sciences provide the critical thinking and communication skills that are considered essential by employers along with the chance for students to explore areas of personal interest.
