Credit for formalized international experiences related to agricultural sciences and natural resources. Determination of credit based on nature of the proposed experience. Students should discuss the opportunity with their faculty advisors prior to the trip to determine if it is appropriate for credit. Credit hours will be determined by the department and college depending on the extent of activity and types of projects and/or presentations to be completed by the student upon return.
Repeatability: May be repeated. Maximum 12 hours.
Registration Permission: Consent of instructor.
Other Instructors: Walton, Jonathan | Boyer, Chris | Ader, David Russell | Kojima, Cheryl Jean | Willcox, Adam Sage
Supervised experience in teaching - test preparation and evaluation of agriculture students.
Repeatability: May be repeated. Maximum 2 hours for MS students and maximum 4 hours for PhD students.
Other Instructors: Eash, Neal | Duncan, Lori Allison | Essington, Michael E | Zhao, Yang | Edwards, J. Lannett | Rius, Agustin G | Bates, Gary Edward | Schrick, Neal | Buckley, David S | Kojima, Cheryl Jean | Mathew, Daniel J | Kwit, Charles
Survey of American animal production, harvest, and marketing systems for beef, dairy, pork, and poultry and their associated challenges. History of the development of the industries associated meat/dairy/egg production and current status. Includes discussing the role of American literature, public opinion, and politics in the regulation of animal agriculture through legislation as well as market-driven modifications. Comparisons of American systems with those of other regions of the globe and discussion of the impact of American animal agriculture on the global economy. Comments: Animal Science Majors must earn a grade of C or better in this course or ANSC 150 to remain in the major.
The projected world population will grow to nearly 10 billion people by 2050. To sustain the nutritional needs of our populations, the demand for milk, eggs, meat, and other animal products will continue to grow. This requires an understanding of the balance needed among competing values of producing a safe, affordable food supply for everyone while sustaining livelihoods, human health, animal health and welfare (ONE-HEALTH) with a limited land base. Developing strategies and technologies to address these needs will be critical for the future. Students will develop the knowledge and skills to be able to investigate and critically evaluate the benefits, challenges, and needs associated with feeding the world with animal protein. Students must complete this course with a grade of C or better to remain in the major of Animal Science. Satisfies Volunteer Core Requirement: (EI)
Other Instructors: Beever, Jon
