North Carolina State University's Animal Science Department trains leaders in the science of domestic mammals, covering veterinary bioscience, domestic livestock production, and business. Students gain hands-on experiences in companion animal care, nutrition, and managing food animal systems, preparing them for careers in research, sales, production, business, and education.
One notable spinout company from NC State, Hoofprint Biome, founded by two Ph.D. graduates, focuses on improving cattle's gut health to reduce methane emissions, a significant contributor to climate change. The department also celebrates diversity within the first-generation community and offers engaging experiences at events like the North Carolina State Fair, showcasing the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences' contributions to the industry.
