This degree provides graduate students with tools and skills for pursuing or advancing in a career related to animal science. Students take core courses in advanced animal science, electives in areas such as ethics and leadership, and an individualized problem solving project. This degree is ideal for recent graduates aiming to expand their knowledge and experience base prior to entering into a professional degree program or the workforce. Students take advanced coursework related to host-pathogen interactions, nutrition and immunology, and technical and practical training.
