COURSE DESCRIPTION

Advance outcomes for animals and industry

We rely on animals for so much—labour, entertainment, companionship. Animal science is essential for keeping the animals under our charge housed, fed, healthy and safe.

Animal scientists research new technologies and approaches to managing animal production and welfare, develop and run breeding programs, regulate animal feed and products, and work to decrease the environmental impact of agriculture.

What will you do?

Our Bachelor of Science (Animal Science) prepares you for success in the lab and the field. You will:

  • explore animal physiology, nutrition, reproduction, breeding and management
  • study in a range of specialised areas including livestock, horses, wildlife, companion animals and laboratory animals
  • gain practical skills working with experts in the field
  • carry out individual and team research projects
  • access our $37 million purpose-built veterinary teaching and research facilities.

There are also optional work placement opportunities in relevant industries.

Where could it take you?

You could provide farmers with ways to improve the health and welfare of livestock. Perhaps you’ll get a job as a nutritionist developing diets for companion or production animals, or work in a wildlife park or zoo. You might research laboratory animal housing, or ways to detect or control diseases that affect our wildlife.
