Oregon State University's Department of Animal and Rangeland Sciences offers a Master of Science (M.S.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Animal Science.
Graduate students in the animal sciences program work on advancing scientific knowledge and fundamental understanding of areas such as reproductive biology and nutritional metabolism. Students develop new processes and technologies for profitable and environmentally-friendly animal production and management.
The discovery and dissemination of principles of animal behavior through the study of both livestock and companion animals are also fundamental activities in this program.
Graduate work leading to degrees may involve research on animal genetics, reproductive physiology, embryo physiology, animal nutrition, growth and development, endocrinology, nutritional biochemistry, animal behavior, livestock management, and dairy production.
