The Department is an integrated, dynamic research, education and extension. Our mission is to provide students with a rigorous and systematic education to effectively respond to challenges facing the sustainable animal production; and become a leading force in the research of biotechnology and management of domestic animals to benefit society. The Department provides undergraduate, Master and Ph.

We study production efficiency, physiology, nutrition, processing of animal products, animal welfare, waste management of dairy cattle, sheep, pig and poultry. Our program not only solves animal sciences problems but also secures the food safety and sustainable animal production. The courses in companion animal offer a good opportunity to learn nutrition and behavior for our best friends.
