Program Details

Animal Biology School: University of Guelph Faculty: Department of Animal and Poultry Science Degree: Bachelor ; Honours Field of Study: Zoology/Animal Biology Description: Animal Biology emphasizes the science underlying the practical husbandry of animals, primarily those used for food products but also companion and exotic species. You will acquire a broad overview of animal production systems and a detailed understanding of how these rely increasingly on our emerging knowledge in fields such as genetics, molecular biology, reproductive technology, nutrition, environmental physiology, behaviour, and welfare. By appropriate selection of elective courses, you may choose to pursue one of the above areas in further depth at the senior undergraduate level. The program also provides excellent preparation for students interested in pursuing a career in veterinary medicine. Career opportunities may be available in animal breeding and animal feed industries, animal health and veterinary pharmaceutical industries, biotechnology, animal care and welfare, education, and technical liaison.
