Ringkasan program

This program goal is to train students to be well qualified to compete for the diverse job opportunities available within the student's major interest area. This requires a mixture of general training and specific training adapted to the individual student's needs and desires. Because animal science involves a combination of many allied disciplines, including chemistry, biochemistry, biology, microbiology, genetics, and statistics, the types of programs available to students are flexible but of equally high quality regardless of the direction of effort. It offers concentrations in animal nutrition, functional genomics, animal physiology, and animal health and well-being. Research in reproductive biology is a means for scientists to contribute to the well-being of society by increasing the supply of food animals through increased reproductive efficiency of livestock. Animal research has led to the development of assisted reproductive technologies, such as, estrous synchronization, artificial insemination, embryo transfer, in vitro fertilization, embryo culture, oocyte, embryo and sperm cryopreservation, which have been used successfully to make genetic improvement of livestock resulting in increased milk, meat and fiber production.
