饲养和管理用于肉，奶和其他产品的动物既需要专门的牲畜知识，也需要有商业头脑。在该计划中，您将通过研究动物科学主题（例如生殖，营养，生长和健康）来探索如何繁殖和饲养牲畜。您将获得在奶场，饲养场或牧场日常管理牲畜活动的实用业务技能。您的大部分教育都将在肉类科学实验室和动物中心进行，您可能会在这里学习如何最大程度地发挥零售价的价值或获得纯种牛和萨福克种羊的亲身经验。
Raising and managing animals for meat, milk and other products requires both specialized livestock knowledge and business savvy. In this program, you will explore how to breed and care for livestock through the study of animal science topics like reproduction, nutrition, growth and health. You will gain practical business skills for the day-to-day management of livestock operations at a dairy, feedlot or ranch. Much of your education will take place in the meat science lab and animal centers, where you might learn how to maximize the value of retail cuts or gain hand-on experience with purebred cows and breeding Suffolk ewes.
