Animal Science is a multidisciplinary field that focuses on the study of domesticated animals, including livestock, poultry, and companion animals. It covers various aspects such as genetics, nutrition, physiology, reproduction, health, and management to improve animal productivity and well-being. The course integrates biological and agricultural sciences to enhance the efficiency of animal production while ensuring sustainability and animal welfare. 

Students learn about animal breeding to enhance desirable traits, animal nutrition to optimize growth and health, and animal behavior to understand how environmental factors influence well-being. Disease prevention and veterinary care are also key components, addressing issues related to animal health and biosecurity. The course often includes practical experiences in laboratories, farms, and research settings, where students gain hands-on knowledge of handling, feeding, and managing different animal species.

Graduates can pursue careers in livestock management, animal nutrition, genetics, veterinary science, agribusiness, and research. The field plays a crucial role in food production, ensuring the availability of high-quality animal products such as meat, milk, and eggs. With advancements in biotechnology and precision farming, animal scientists contribute to innovations that improve efficiency, sustainability, and animal welfare in agricultural industries.
