Become part of a globally renowned agricultural institution. Massey's Postgraduate Diploma in Science (Animal Science) serves as a gateway to advanced research degrees. This program is ideal for students seeking a primarily coursework-based postgraduate option. Alternatively, it provides a foundation for pursuing deeper research at the master's level. The PGDipScTech allows you to demonstrate your analytical skills and advanced research potential. Successful completion may qualify you to advance to the Master of Science (Animal Science), with possible credit transfer from this diploma. Massey's distinguished heritage in agricultural education began in 1927 when we introduced New Zealand's inaugural agriculture degrees. Here, you won't simply learn animal science - you'll join a premier global community for animal and agricultural research. Our Manawatu campus is uniquely positioned among operational farms and cutting-edge animal science research facilities.
