There's opportunities in the US, but people feel pay is too low. Australia seems to have better paying opportunities, but it might be much harder to get a visa. I'm not sure what opportunities are like in Europe.

There may be good opportunities in South Africa, but it's unclear.

Are you planning to work in a farm or with livestock in the future? If you planning to run a farm. e.g a fishery farm , then animal science is a course for you.

Hey. I want to help you. Let me help you.

Animal Science as a course is under the faculty of Agriculture in most institutions. The Biological Sciences counterpart of the course is Zoology or Animal and Environmental Biology (as the case may be).

I will be giving you some insights on the applications of Animal Science (as in for faculty of Agriculture). If you think you're in Faculty of Science or you need more info on the course or just academic guidance, I'll gladly help.

I am Elijah Rona, a final year student of Animal and Environmental Biology, University of Port Harcourt. Though I study the course (as in the theory and science of it), I have come to love the Agricultural, Medical and Environmental applications of what I study. Since you're in Agriculture, I will answer you, giving you the the Agricultural importance of the course.
* Animal Cultivation (as in Animal husbandary) Consultancy: Nigeria is moving into an Agricultural economy. With Animal Science, you can be a consultant to cultivators of Chickens, Pigs, Cows, Snails, Fishes (Catfish, Tilapia, etc.), etc.
* Production of Biogas: Biogas (or Methane) is the byproduct of anaerobic Bacteria such as methanocytes that dwell in the gut of ruminants like cows. With Animal Science, Cows will be not just a source of food but also a source of fuel and electricity.
* Research on How to Domesticate Wild Animals: As Nigerians, we love eating wild animals like bats, snakes, bush meat, etc. These animals are a threat to us because we don't know how healthy they are. With the help of an Animal Scientist like yourself, such animals can be cultivated so that people who have weird taste for such Animals will have a place to buy healthy ones.
Sustainable Development Goals: Do you know that the population of our wild Biodiversity is reducing because of over-hunting, superstition, etc? With your help, we can think of sustainable practices so that we humans and the animals can coexist.

There you go. Need more help? I'm on Twitter

Am a proud animal scientist. Studied Animal Nutrition @ FUNAAB and had my M.sc in Agricultural Biochemistry at U.I .
This last few month really opened my eyes to alot of things particularly how important farming is.
I work in An integrated Farm as the manager and during this lockdown, I placed an advert on social media for job opportunities. People with B.Tech, B. Engineer, and political science graduate applied for farm attendant Job.
The pandemic lead to alot of company and industries to lay off some of their staffs and there is massive unemployment in town at the moment. but farmers are still working, birds are still laying eggs, ours Pigs and goats are producing good litters and our staffs and labourers are still earning and meeting their needs.

To cap it all, the management increased salary for all her workers during the lockdown rather than lay off some like is happening in other sectors of the economy.

My guy just study hard and ensure u know the tifun tedo of animal science, the technical know-how and u are good to go.

Respect to all Practicing Farmers in the House.

The question the OP is asking is Animal science a good course. The answer is no. if the op have option, please change to better courses like Computer Science, Accountancy, Nursing and some engineering course. You can only go for this course if you want to be a practicing farmer. A good course doesn't have to be until you own a farm just like having a degree in Nursing or medicine doesn't mean the only option open to you is to own an hospital. You should start with a paid employement and be an apprehentice first and train before you established yours later in life. Going into farming will make you old quickly than your mate who works in offices
Mr Oga...be guided. read through my first comment and know what brought about the particular one you quote.
Don't reason like a child.

Education, banking and political science are one of the most useless courses.

I wonder why someone would attend school for if and get a bsc but anyone who studied any course can work in the field. Thats pure cheating

Added that edu based on the fact that learning insts expands yearly and ought to need their skills. Anyway, I somewhat agree with you.
