The University of Findlay offered the the animal science major for the first time in the fall of 2007, to provide students with more opportunities in the animal industry.

The animal science major allows students to pursue topics in livestock production, animal nutrition, genetics and reproduction, carcass evaluation, and forage management.

The Bachelor of Science degree may focuses on a business and production-based curriculum, or one in which the emphasis is on science-related topics that prepare students to continue their education through professional and graduate schools, ultimately pursuing careers in research areas.
