The Master of Professional Studies (MPS) in Animal Science is a one-year, STEM-designated, course-based master’s degree program ideal for career-focused students interested in the thorough study of issues and advancements in animal science.
Though similar to a Master of Science (MS) degree in its academic rigor, the MPS degree differs from a traditional MS degree in its structure and focus. An MS prepares students for a research-based career, with students developing an original research thesis over the course of two or three years. In contrast, the MPS degree is a one-year, course-based program, designed to impact knowledge and skills in a given area of concentration. Instead of a thesis or research project, MPS students complete a capstone project which allows them to apply their knowledge and skills in a practical manner.
