The Doctor of Philosophy in Animal Breeding program offers advanced research training in quantitative genetics, genomics, and breeding strategies for animal improvement. Students conduct innovative research projects in areas such as genetic selection, breeding value estimation, genomic prediction, and marker-assisted selection. Through data analysis, simulation modeling, and experimental design, students contribute to genetic improvement programs in livestock production systems. Graduates of the program pursue careers as animal geneticists, breeding program managers, research scientists, and academic educators.
