Animal Breeding and Genetics, 120 HEC

How do we use animal genetic resources? Is it possible to rule the development of animal health? How do we make sustainable breeding programmes for improved global food security?

The Erasmus Mundus programme "European Master in Animal Breeding and Genetics (EMABG)" is a response to the international need for highly qualified graduates in the knowledge intensive area of animal breeding and genetics. EMABG concentrates on quantitative and molecular genetics for animal breeding purposes, with a main focus on the development of breeding programmes for a sustainable use of farm animals, fish and companion animals.

This programme is given in as part of the Euroleague for Life Sciences (ELLS) network, a cooperation of leading universities in the fields of Natural Resource Management, Agricultural and Forestry Sciences, Life Sciences, Veterinary Sciences, Food Sciences, and Environmental Sciences.  For more information, please visit ELLS
