Program Description
MRes Animal Science provides students with the ideal opportunity to carry out research in a specific area of animal science while studying a selection of taught elements relating to animal science (reproduction, anatomy, immunology, grassland science, nutrition, animal production and genetics). In this way students will gain a Masters degree by research but with the opportunity to explore other taught areas of interest in different areas of animal science. Providing students with a high level of research training, the MRes is the ideal stepping-stone for those either considering a PhD in animal science or the wider field of animal/veterinary/biological science as well as positions in research and development.
Working under the supervision of active researchers with expertise in the field, students will develop a year-long animal science research project in the areas of production, reproduction, parasitology, nutrition, cognition or behaviour. They will be mentored in hypothesis-driven experimental design and will receive training in analytical techniques, statistical analysis and the interpretation of results.
