Meat Science Laboratory

The Meat Science Laboratory is an unusual facility to be found in a university setting. It is a small-scale meat packing plant operating under federal meat inspection regulations with the capability to slaughter, cut and process all the major red meat species. The purpose of the laboratory is to provide the means for teaching and research in all aspects of meat science. The Meat Science Laboratory also provides a service facility for the various departments of the University needing to harvest tissue or organ samples from meat animals for their research programs.

Information Technology and Computing

The information technology group (ABSsIT) provides faculty, staff, and students with advanced information technology, computing, communication and data analysis expertise in support of research, teaching and extension. This encompasses a wide range of technical disciplines including: systems and database design and development, communications networking, statistical analysis, computer programming, operations research, bioinformatics, mathematical model development and implementation, computer graphics and multimedia, audiovisual, website and web application development.

Animal Housing Facilities

The Campus animal housing facilities associated with the Department of Animal Biosciences consist of two floors in the animal research wing of the Animal Science/Nutrition (ANNU) building and one section of Barn 37, located immediately behind ANNU.

The Department has approx 3,000 sq. ft. of floor space available in ANNU, with environmentally controlled rooms to house poultry, pigs, fish, rodents and small ruminants and feed storage areas.
