Course summary
The Master of Science Program in Animal Science is designed to provide advanced education focused in areas of animal science (animal nutrition, gut microbiology, animal physiology, rangeland habitat management, stem cell biology, and animal genomics). This program is designed both for students wishing to pursue further training in graduate or professional schools and for those individuals who wish to enhance knowledge and practical skills related to employment.
