Animal & Dairy Science
Animal and Dairy Science (ADS) is a multidisciplinary and diverse department, which provides instructional, research and extension programming in the areas of food animal production, equine/companion animal management, and animal and medicinal biotechnology that addresses critical issues, such as cost of production, profitability, human and animal health, environmental stewardship, bioethics, and animal well-being.
As we enter a new century, agricultural and environmental sciences begin a new day. Careers in agriculture and the environment are turning high tech, reaching far into the stars to find answers to problems here on Earth.
Today's agricultural and environmental scientists help provide food, clothing and environmental protection not only for their neighbors next door but also for their neighbors around the world.
