any animal science majors here? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

I was wondering of the job opportunities for animal science majors. A friend of mine is graduating with theirs in a few months and is trying to find a job (central California) and I wanted to be able to keep an eye out for them as well.

Thanks for the help.

I'm not an animal science major, but your friend should definitely look into government jobs. I imagine s/he's already looking into openings at zoos and research departments at natural history museums, aquaria and the like. The government also tends to have a lot of hidden opportunities for practical (as opposed to theoretical) scientists. The USFS (forest service) is an agency that may have openings, and there are usually a lot of opportunities in fisheries (or so I hear from fellow environmental science majors). That's all I got.

Veterinary science as well? My father-in-law is a vet, and makes a nice living.
