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 need for highly qualified graduates in the knowledge intensive area of animal breeding and genetics which is operating internationally. EMABG concentrate on quantitative and molecular genetics for animal breeding purposes, with a main focus on development of breeding programmes for a sustainable use of farm animals, fish and companion animals.
