UMD’s MS in Animal Sciences trains students in the biological and technological foundations of animal biology, reproduction, nutrition, and production systems. The program supports research in genetics, immunology, and animal welfare, with applications in agriculture, veterinary medicine, and food systems. Graduates go on to careers in animal biotechnology, government labs, and PhD programs.
