ANIMAL SCIENCES TEACHING PROGRAMS & Student Advising
This site is to help students majoring in Animal Sciences at Auburn University plan their course schedules. Students who are considering majoring or minoring Animal Sciences also will find the course information helpful.

Curriculum Tracks

Animal Sciences offers four curriculum options. The Pre-Vet/Pre-Professional Option (ANPV) provides students with a foundation in the biological and physical sciences for careers in emerging areas of animal biotechnology while satisfying requirements for application to Auburn's College of Veterinary Medicine, other professional schools or graduate school. The Production/Management Option (ANPM) offers greater breadth in animal production management and agribusiness while retaining more elective hours for additional curriculum flexibility. Students may use electives to develop expertise in fields such as meat science, animal breeding, nutrition, reproduction, growth, behavior, equine science and companion animals. The Equine Science Option (ANEQ) allows students to focus on the sciences and practical skills required for a successful career in the horse industry, and by choosing, appropriate elective courses, will prepare students to apply to the College of Veterinary Medicine. The Muscle Foods Option (ANMF) provides a strong foundation in growth and development as it relates to animal value, animal products, meat processing, food safety, and consumer nutrition and marketing. Career opportunities in this area of Animal Science range from live animal management to processing, to food service.
