Contribute to the world's complex relationship between animals, humans and the environment Be part of solving one of humanity's most critical grand challenges – the global demand for food and fiber. With the population expected to grow by 2.3 billion by 2050, feeding the world will require raising overall food production by 70 percent. You will become knowledgeable in animal nutrition, health, behavior, reproduction, physiology, genetics and animal management. You will play an important role in education and the conservation of non-domesticated animals housed in zoos, aquariums and sanctuaries. You will also contribute to a greater understanding of the complex relationships between domestic animals (livestock and pets), wild animals, humans and our shared environment. Among all college majors, Animal Science ranks No. 14, according to USA Today.
