People love animals.
Their devotion and companionship grasp our hearts, making animals a popular career choice for many people. But beyond their roles as pets, animals provide us with service, food, clothing, medicines, and valuable scientific information. They play an important role in our economy and in our everyday lives. Because of this role, Animal Science is often the discipline of choice for those with a passion for animals and a desire to understand how they work. Using biology, chemistry and applied sciences, Animal Science focuses on understanding the physiology, behavior, health and management of domesticated animals.
