Course Information

We rely on animals for so much—labour, entertainment, companionship. Animal science is essential for keeping the animals under our charge housed, fed, healthy and safe.

Animal scientists research new technologies and approaches to managing animal production and welfare, develop and run breeding programs, regulate animal feed and products, and work to decrease the environmental impact of agriculture.

What will you do?

Our Bachelor of Science (Animal Science) prepares you for success in the lab and the field. You will:

learn how to positively influence the productivity and welfare of livestock, as well as the health of pets, zoo animals and wildlife
build practical skills with 200 hours of professional work experience
work with a variety of species, including livestock, horses, wildlife, companion animals and laboratory animals
join a close-knit, animal-focused community at our Roseworthy campus
study the fundamentals of animal physiology, as you explore areas like wildlife management, nutrition and on-farm management
draw on the University’s internationally recognised expertise in animal and veterinary sciences.
