NEW ACTIVATION
A started in the 2007/08 are activated three distinct lines:
Orientation Acquacoltura
Guidance and breeding biology of the fauna
Orientation of farming technologies.
The study plan of the first year is common to all three guidelines.
Students will choose their orientation at the time of the second year
FEATURES AND PURPOSE ‘OF COURSE
Modern society requires more and more insistently management systems of animals that are respectful of animal welfare, to ensure high quality and safety of animal products consumed by humans and that consider the preservation of wild animal resources.
The course is therefore proposed to prepare professionals who have responsibilities regarding the management of livestock and fish farming for food production for humans and animals and wildlife resources in natural systems and rural areas.
The degree course, taking into account the guidance and the lessons chosen by the students, prepares graduates with:
basic knowledge in the fields of biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics and the useful and sufficient for professional and scientific area;
basic knowledge in the fields of biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics and the useful and sufficient for professional and scientific area;
knowledge of the structure and principles of operation of various organs and systems of animals of zootechnical interest, including aquatic organisms, and wildlife-hunting, knowing qualitatively assess the biological phenomena;
knowledge of genetics and genetic improvement, nutrition and feeding of animals, including aquatic organisms, and technology ‘breeding and reproduction, production of fodder and feed, environmental impact of livestock farming, the welfare of animals raised and laboratory, also aimed at improving sanitation and quality of animal products;
knowledge of livestock ecology and management of animal resources and wildlife in rural and natural systems;
knowledge of general pathology, hygiene, livestock, veterinary medicine, pharmacology, toxicology and health and quality of animal products;
knowledge of economic and technical management of agro-livestock farms, acquacolturali and faunal-hunting, and this component also in parks and protected areas, the processing of animal products and legislation for the sector;
knowledge essential for laboratory work in the fields of competence;
practical experiences and survey methods for solving specific problems of the sector.
The graduate should be able to work professionally in the field of animal products, cooperating in the technical, hygienic and economic activity of livestock, wildlife-hunting and aquaculture, as well as those that provide technical resources and services and those operating in processing and marketing of animal products, has acquired:
ability to collaborate in planning activities, assistance in public and private organizations in relation to the powers above;
English language skills in the specific jurisdiction;
skills and tools for communication and information management;
ability to work in groups, to work with defined degrees of autonomy and to enter into the work promptly.
GUIDANCE “AQUACULTURE”
The course of study, after a general preparation of animals for breeding, will be directed to the study of aquatic organisms considering various aspects, such as nutrition, genetic improvement el’impiantistica from fish farms. The course of study aims to train professionals able to provide operators in the sector of fish farming with expert advice on better farming techniques to achieve high levels of production efficiency and quality of animal products and to implement and manage the production of chains in the aquatic environment, while also aspects related to quality.
PROFESSIONAL MARKETS
Graduates can work at:
fish farms
Companies feedingstuffs
technical assistance services in ittiocoltura
consortium for the production of fish products to origin
ADVISORY: BIOLOGY AND BREEDING OF FAUNA
The course of study, after a general preparation of animals for breeding, will be directed to the study of wild animals as part of a delicate natural system with insights on the biology and ecology as well as the spatial analysis techniques for livestock and wildlife in order to operate in rural and natural systems.
A graduate with guidance in “Biology and breeding of wild animals is therefore able to conduct a business planning and control of ecological environments and management of animal resources and wildlife in natural systems, including in relation to livestock farming activities in rural areas.
PROFESSIONAL MARKETS
Graduates can work at:
faunal-hunting companies
public and private functions of planning and design of natural and rural areas
managing bodies of the parks and protected areas
ADVISORY: FARMING TECHNOLOGIES
The orientation Technologies breeding animal “allows the graduate to work in the organization and technical management of livestock farming and marketing of animal feeds and animal products. The animal rearing is studied in several respects, including genetic improvement, the food, shelter structures, pathology, and reproductive technologies. With this course of studies is a trained professional can provide livestock operators with expert advice on better farming techniques to achieve high levels of animal welfare, production and economic efficiency and product quality.
