| Broad opportunities for young people to prepare for agricultural
and related careers are offered by the School of Agriculture.
The school offers undergraduate and graduate curricula leading to degrees in agricultural science and animal technology. Degree options in agricultural science include (1) agriscience technology, (2) agricultural education, (3) agribusiness, (4) agricultural systems technology, (5) agronomy and (6) horticulture. Degree options in animal technology are (1) animal/equine science and (2) animal health technology/pre-veterinary medicine. The pre-professional curriculum in veterinary medicine is designed to permit a student to complete the requirements for admission to veterinary colleges in less than four years or to allow the student to obtain a B.S. degree from Murray State University within four years if desired. Nationwide recognition is offered by accreditation agencies such as the American Veterinary Medical Association, and the American Association of Veterinary Laboratory Diagnosticians. Departmental facilities include classrooms, laboratories, and offices housed in the south wing of the Hugh L. Oakley Applied Science Building, the A. Carman Animal Health Technology Center, the E.B. Howton Agricultural Engineering Building, greenhouses and three farm laboratories located near the campus. The horse, dairy, beef, and swine facilities are a part of the farm-laboratory complex. The West Kentucky Livestock and Exposition Center is utilized for equine and rodeo classes, contests, field days, judging contests, clinics and numerous agricultural activities. The School of Agriculture offers three undergraduate degree programs: a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture degree, a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in agriculture, and an Associate of Science degree with emphasis in agricultural science and technology. Minors are available in agriculture and in equine science. MSU's Breathitt Veterinary Center (BVC), located in Hopkinsville,
Kentucky, has as its primary mission the provision of diagnostic data;
however, its mission also includes instruction and research. The center's
facilities and personnel provide learning experiences for students in the
animal health technology program. The BVC also conducts research dealing
with infectious diseases of food animals.
