Students share their living and learning experience with a community of peers who are all committed to working with animals and engaging in research on campus farms and in animal related research laboratories. Students will live in Knowlton Hall in the Northeast residential area, room with another student in the RAP, and be able to easily connect with classmates for study groups and class projects. The Animal Science RAPs are also First-year seminars with a capacity of just 19 students and taught in Knowlton Hall. By participating, students are enrolled in a unique 1-credit seminar which will introduce them to a range of academic opportunities available through the Veterinary and Animal Sciences Department, enhance their academic experience, and promote a successful transition into the University.
