"Animal Science" does sound a little bad doesn't it.A degree in Animal Science, huh?
Here it is nothing like animal experimentation, far from it. It is a course about nutrition, physiology and behaviour of animals.
Unfortunately as I am a vegetarian the nutrition and physiology parts have been aimed at animal production - meat and animal products. However what we have learnt say diet forumlation can be applied to any animal, horses, cats, dogs etc.
I chose modules which focused on the behaviour aspect and for my dissertation designed and peformed an experiment on horses behaviour and how their stabled behaviour could be enriched.
Many people use this as a step to get into vet school if they didn;t get the grades to get in after school.
