Admitted and prospective students and their families can gain a firsthand look at one of the world’s leading animal and dairy science programs. Attendees will learn about the curriculum, scholarships and financial aid availability, career options, and extracurricular opportunities that make-up the “Badger Experience” for animal and dairy students. Current students and instructors will be also on hand to answer questions and to talk about their involvement in campus activities.
“Choosing a college to attend is a major life decision. Thoroughly doing one’s research, taking campus visits, and attending virtual recruiting events is the best way to make it an informed choice,” says Kent Weigel, professor and chair of the Department of Animal & Dairy Sciences. “Students that visit us are often amazed by the small-school feel of our ag campus and the extra benefits they get studying at a Big Ten university,” states Weigel.
