Overview
Participants of this Animal and Veterinary Science programme from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem come from Israel and from around the world. During their studies, they enjoy many opportunities to meet and network with professionals and peers from different countries, on campus, during site visits, on field trips, and at social events.
Key Facts
Following graduation, the majority of alumni return to their home countries, where many of them hold key positions in the governmental administration of animal production, management of farm animals, farm animal husbandry, and consultation and research in these fields at universities or private institutes. Many alumni continue on to PhD degrees and to careers in research at leading institutions around the world.
Israeli animal husbandry and management practices are among the most productive in the world, thanks to a sophisticated infrastructure based on the integration of science-based production methods with efficient extension services and an advanced health-supporting veterinary service. The Hebrew University’s MSc program in Animal Sciences enables students from around the world to learn about Israel's advanced agriculture in these fields.
