Animal Breeding and Genetics Course

Animal Breeding and Genetics Course
4 to 360 hours flexible workload
valid certificate in your country

What will I learn?

You will build a thorough understanding of animal genetics, starting with cell biology and inheritance and advancing through population genetics, quantitative trait analysis, and breeding value estimation. You will learn to apply the breeder's equation, design crossbreeding systems, and manage inbreeding in commercial and nucleus herds. The course covers genomic selection using SNP arrays, GBLUP, and GWAS, as well as bioinformatics tools for processing large-scale genomic data. You will also evaluate reproductive technologies, genetic disease management, and the ethical and regulatory dimensions of modern breeding. By the end, you will be equipped to build, run, and adapt complete livestock breeding programmes.
