Overview

Program description:
The MSc in Animal Husbandry Engineering is designed to develop your undergraduate knowledge and improve it through application and research. The field of Animal Science is broad and the programme reflects this diversity, with emphasis on Physiology, Nutrition and Genetics. Gene Conservation, Functional Food and Molecular Biology are the key research areas of the Institute. Throughout your stay at Debrecen University, which is the second largest university in Hungary, with 30 000 students, as a postgraduate student of Animal Science, you will have a personal academic tutor to guide you through your studies and to meet your individual goals and interests. We offer you a 4 week field practice in summer. Areas of study: Biochemistry, Quantitative and Molecular Genetics, Physiology, Reproductive Biology, Microbiology, Research Methods, Animal Production, Animal Nutrition, Natural Resource Management, Wild Animal Health, Aquaculture, Fisheries and Management, Food Safety and Quality, Economics and Planning.
