Course Description The Advance Methods in Animal Breeding is a course for the graduate students pursuing their Master of Science in Agriculture (MSA). This course covers the principles in selection and
improvement of farm animals. The knowledge of this course can bond the student out either in designing animal breeding exercise, in extension work with animal raisers or in research work on
animal breeding. It is believed that graduates of this course will later help to solve the problem of food deficiency through advancing methods of animal breeding locally, nationally and globally.
Program Outcomes 1. Produce graduates who exemplify competence in providing technical and policy advice in implementing programs that would promote sustainable agricultural development in the
Addressed by the regional, national and global
Course 2. Demonstrate the skills required in the management practices of raising crops and animals.
3. Employ post-production and value adding strategies.
4. Own and mobilize resources and information for gainful and sustainable development of the agricultural and food system resources.
5. Advocate entrepreneurial, economic and sustainable activities in the field agriculture without compromising the environmental and human health
