Texas A&M Animal Science Visit us at http://animalscience.tamu.edu In 1965, the department became more encompassing and was renamed the Department of Animal Science.

The Board of Directors of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas initiated the development of the Animal Husbandry Department in 1903. Today, the Department of Animal Science at Texas A&M University has achieved national and international prominence as the largest and most complex department of animal science in the nation. As part of its land grant mission, the Animal Science Department

strives to meet the needs of all citizens by providing outstanding teaching, research and extension programs. Currently, disciplines within the department include reproductive physiology, animal breeding and genetics, food science, microbiology, equine science, dairy science, animal nutrition and meat science. The department responds to the Texas animal industry through research and education programs in equine, beef, dairy, swine, sheep and goats.

Future livestock judges, industry leaders and Aggies all in one place๐Ÿ‘

This week, Texas A&M Animal Science faculty, staff and students helped facilitate the Livestock Judging Contest at Texas 4-H Roundup, welcoming 4-H members from across Texas to campus.

From evaluating classes to defending their decisions, participants put their livestock knowledge to work while gaining valuable experience that will benefit them far beyond the contest arena. We are always proud to play a small role in helping develop the next generation of leaders in agriculture.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this yearโ€™s event a success!
