Employment orientation: Graduates majoring in plant production are mainly engaged in scientific research, technology development, production and management in agriculture, gardens and plant research institutes. Graduates majoring in animal production mainly go to animal husbandry, animal production and other departments to engage in technical management, production site technical work, scientific research and other work. Fishery graduates are mainly engaged in the proliferation, breeding, preservation, processing and utilization of aquatic products, the research and manufacture of fishery technology and equipment, and some of them go to the ocean. Shipping, light industry, foreign trade and environmental protection departments engage in scientific research. Graduates majoring in animal medicine mainly work in veterinary prevention, scientific research, education, production and administrative departments at all levels, animal quarantine stations, commodity inspection bureaus, biopharmaceutical manufacturing and animal food processing units. Graduates majoring in forest resources protection and tourism mainly go to forestry, environmental protection and other departments to engage in sand prevention and control, desert management, production, scientific research, engineering technology, management and forest tourism of gardens, wildlife and nature reserves.
6. Animal science major
Professional introduction: Animal science pays more attention to the comprehensive application of related technologies, while management science research needs to pay attention to the overall layout; At the same time, I hope you have a love for animals and a certain practical ability. 2 1 century, animal science is developing vigorously, and the future of such professionals is limitless. This will be very important for learners to accumulate practical experience in production and cultivate the ability of comprehensive analysis and problem solving.
