About the course

Animal science majors explore advances in animal feeding, breeding, reproduction and management techniques, as well as the health and welfare of animals. Students complete a set of core courses in breeding and genetics, nutrition, physiology and management. As a major, animal science provides flexibility, allowing academic advisers to guide students through a program of study that is consistent with their interests and goals. Scientific principles of biology and animal science are taught using horses, dairy cattle, beef cattle, swine, poultry, sheep and companion animals. Students apply classroom principles to animal science labs and the teaching and research centers on campus.

　　Animal Biology or Pre-Veterinary Concentration includes the core courses for animal science with focus on science. Students who complete this concentration may apply to veterinary college or graduate school. In addition, these students may pursue careers in nutrition, genetics, physiology, or the pharmaceutical industry. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
