Doctoral Degree Requirements: A
doctoral degree in Animal Science and Poultry Science with a concentration in
either Animal Science or Poultry Science is offered. Specific course
requirements are flexible and each student's program
of
study is developed in consultation with their Ph.D. advisory committee.
The minor is optional but external faculty representation is required on the
advisory committee.
Note:
The Master's program in Animal Science
and Poultry Science
are administered
independently by each department.
Admission Requirements: Factors considered for admission include: grade point average, scores on the GRE, undergraduate courses, and letters of recommendation. A member of either the Animal Science Department or Poultry Science Department faculty can serve as the applicant's advisor.
Student Financial Support: The Departments of Animal Science and Poultry Science offer a limited number of research and teaching assistantships that are awarded on a competitive basis. Students may also be supported by research grant funds awarded to faculty members. Students applying for these assistantships are advised to apply by February 15 for fall admission.
Other Relevant Information: There
are two curriculum codes for the Animal Science and Poultry Science doctoral
degree program. If a student is interested in a program concentration in Animal
Science the appropriate curriculum code for the admissions application is ANA.
If the student is interested in a program concentration in Poultry Science the
appropriate curriculum code for the admissions application is ANP. If the
appropriate curriculum code is not selected, it will likely delay the
department's receipt of the applicant’s information from the Graduate School.
