Master of Animal Science

The Master of Animal Science is designed for recent graduates in any field, those with a Graduate Certificate in Animal Science, and for established professionals wanting to upgrade their skills or redirect their career into animal science.

For your two years' full-time studies, you'll select from over 30 courses, including those within one of three specialised fields - Equine Science, Production Animal Science or Wildlife Biology - allowing you to tailor your studies to suit your interests and career goals.

The program also gives you the opportunity to complete a significant research project which may provide a pathway to research higher degrees.

Graduates demonstrate the ability to apply leadership, research and problem-solving skills to meet the global challenges associated with feeding the world, and maintaining our environment in situations of increasing community expectations of animal welfare, biosecurity concerns, and competition for limited resources. This expands your career prospects into a wide range of government, commercial, community or research-based roles.
