Animal Science – Master's programme

Congratulations on your place at SLU and on the Animal Science - Master’s programme! We look forward to meeting you here in Uppsala this autumn.

The autumn semester 2021 will begin with a roll call.

Date: Monday 30 August

Time and place: On the pages for New students, you will find information about the study start and when the roll call for your programme begins.

On these pages, you will also find all the information you need as a new student at SLU, including information about the orientation days. The orientation days are not mandatory but we recommend that you attend them. They take place at the end of August, before the semester starts, and provide essential and useful information about your stay in Sweden and your studies at SLU.

Your first course will be Animal Science- a scientific approach. On the course page, you will find a timetable for your classes and other course-related information. Timetables and reading lists will be published at least four weeks before the course starts.

The following 2 years will be valuable, exciting, challenging and contribute both to your personal and scientific development. As a student on the Animal Science - Master's programme you will get a broad knowledge within the field of animal science and through course selection get the opportunity to deepen your knowledge in several different profile areas. You will find more information about the different courses in the course schedule further down on this page.

If you have any questions about the course schedule or the programme, please contact the programme director of studies Emma Ivarsson by email. If you have specific questions about a course, please contact the course leader.

Once again, welcome to SLU!
